Life Cycle In IT Projects
V-Model of SDLC
• Transparency: Between the clients, decision makers and team from start to
end hence develop a healthy work environment.
• Project Complexity: Agile could be your best bet in terms of managing big
and complex projects.
Why is Agile preferred Over traditional PM
• More flexibility: While working, if team members feel that there is a
need to experiment and try something different than as planned, the
agile methodology easily allows them to do so. The best thing about
this methodology is that it focuses more on the product than following
a rigid structure. Unlike the traditional approach, agile methodology
isn’t linear or follows a top-down approach.
• Transparency: The clients and decision makers are actively involved
from the initiation, planning, review, and in the testing part of a
product. The agile methodology facilitates team members to view the
progress right from the start to the end. This level of transparency
plays a significant role to constitute a healthy work environment.
Why is Agile preferred Over traditional PM
• Ownership and accountability: In the agile methodology, every
team member shares ownership of the project. Each one of them
plays an active role to complete the sprint within the estimated time.
Unlike traditional project management, everyone involved in the
project can easily see view the progress from the beginning to an end.
• Scope for feedback: In the traditional approach, every single process
is clearly defined and planned from the beginning of the
project. Whereas agile management allows constant feedback that
is helpful in providing better output. They can respond to customer
requests as customers get to validate each iteration that enables them
to deliver a high-quality product or service within the delivery time.
• Project complexity: Owing to its linear approach, the traditional
project management methodology is majorly used for small or less
complex projects. Agile could be your best bet in terms of
managing big and complex projects.
