Staying Agile with Constraints on Your Drupal Project

Track: 
Business and Strategy
Experience: 
Intermediate

Every project has them. Time. Budgets. Resources. Features. Functionality. Can we truly be agile on a fixed-budget? What about fixed scope? How do we identify our areas of flexibility and adapt our agile strategy and deliver a successful product?

In this talk we will explore available agile project management strategies given specific constraints, including:

  • Fixed Requirements
  • Fixed Cost
  • Fixed Deadline

Finding success in these different scenarios begins with understanding the options available to us. Once they have been identified, we can tailor our project plans for feature priority order, requirements definition, and setting iteration lengths.

Intended audience: 

Business Development Professionals, Project Mangers and Project Stakeholders.
