- Compile our findings and recommendations in an easy-to-consume and actionable format
Why do our customers ask for Agility Checkups?
- Many organizations try to adopt Agile development on their own without getting outside training or consulting. After a few months, things often seem more chaotic than ever, and managers are left wondering if this is really what “Agile” is supposed to be like.
- Organizations we've worked with have utilized our Professional Scrum training and, after three months to a year to put it into practice, want us to revisit them to assess how successful they've been. This helps them measure progress and plan their next steps.
- Some organizations turn to our Agility Checkups after hitting roadblocks in their Agile adoption. With our deep experience leading adoptions, we quickly spot common issues, diagnose why progress has stalled, and provide actionable steps to restart it.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take?
It can take anywhere from one day to a few weeks, depending on the scope of the Agility Checkup. We can assess a single team much more quickly than an organization with a scaled Agile structure involving over fifty teams.
What are your interactions with people like during the Agility Checkup?
We aim to build trust with everyone involved in the checkup process. We work to get an accurate picture of what’s happening, and we can’t do that if people are afraid of how our findings will be used. Our goal is to help you and your team deliver products with greater quality, productivity, and customer focus.
How will you share the results?
We share them with you and anyone else you choose. We’re happy to present our findings to anyone, from development teams to executive teams. This ensures everyone has a clear understanding of the current state and next steps..
