An approach that accommodates the commercial realities and constraints faced by large organisations

    Research from the Standish Group suggests that 23% of large agile projects fail outright, compared to 42% of large Waterfall projects. We’ve been asked by many clients to rescue projects in distress that have used these approaches. What we found was that neither Waterfall or agile truly satisfy stakeholder objectives. Waterfall cannot provide rapid and frequent value, while agile is incompatible with operating models and governance of large organisations.
