The following resources may be helpful when completing this assignment and are located in Week 4 of the course shell:
• "Product Development with Scrum"
• "Agile Project Management and the Real World"
• "Lean Software Development"
There are a number of frameworks that have been used for agile development and project management.
The purpose of this assignment is to discuss how projects are planned and executed in SCRUM, Dynamic Systems Development Model (DSDM), and Lean SoftwareDevelopment.
Using real-world examples in your assignment is highly desired.
One way to do that is to relate any projects at your workplace or from your research and think about how you, as a project manager, would run the same project under those frameworks.
Write a five to six (5-6) page paper in which you:
5. Analyze the manner in which projects are planned and executed under the following frameworks and provide one (1) example for each:
a. SCRUM
b. DSDM
c. Lean Software Development
6. Highlight three (3) benefits and three (3) trade-offs for each of the following frameworks:
a. SCRUM
b. DSDM
c. Lean Software Development
7. Determine the potential obstacles for using the following frameworks and analyze the major risks and issues associated with each of them.
a. SCRUM
b. DSDM
c. Lean Software Development
8. Suggest key strategies from the perspective of a project manager to avoid the obstacles you have identified in Question 3. Recommend key actions that you can take in order to mitigate the risks associated with those frameworks. Provide three (3) real-world examples to support your suggestion.
9. Use at least four (4) quality resources in this assignment. Note: Wikipedia and similar Websites do not qualify as quality resources. You may use the resources above or others of your choosing.
Your assignment must follow these formatting requirements:
• Be typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides; citations and references must follow APA or school-specific format. Check with your professor for any additional instructions.
• Include a cover page containing the title of the assignment, the student's name, the professor's name, the course title, and the date. The cover page and the reference page are not included in the required assignment page length.
The specific course learning outcomes associated with this assignment are:
• Compare and contrast among agile coaches, Scrum Masters, project managers, and technical leads.
• Analyze and differentiate among the different agile project delivery frameworks.
• Use technology and information resources to research issues in advanced agile project management topics.
• Write clearly and concisely about advanced agile project management topics using proper writing mechanics and technical style conventions.
