VisioNext has a dedicated Agile Centre for Excellence that is committed to building Agile capability among VisioNext’s Delivery Teams as well as our clients. We felt the need to establish the CoE because we wanted to offer support, guidance, shared learning and measurements related to Agile Practices. Adopting, continuously improving and scaling require ongoing support by a skilled team of experts that promotes collaboration and uses the best practices around agile transformation across an enterprise. Agile CoE helps sustain the transformation efforts so that the benefits of lean and agile principles percolate effectively across business and operations.
VisioNext Agile CoE provides:
- Thought leadership to support and maximize an Agile transformation investment,
- Agile process and practice innovations that can be shared throughout the enterprise,
- Provides support for strategic enterprise goals and specific program/project goals, and
- Focuses on people and their work in the agile ecosystem.
Why Agile?
- Today’s fast paced environments demand even quicker response and adoption to newer conditions. This puts enterprises under pressure to come up to speed quickly and efficiently. Agile practices help to stay competitive as they are collaborative, repetitive and focused on rapid and iterative delivery of software. This means features are delivered incrementally and allow organizations to realize some benefits early on in the development process.
- Agile teams are able to build software quickly and get the valuable features delivered first by doing away with the unimportant and focusing on key areas. It allows businesses to improve their response time and deliver better software based on customer feedback.
- Agile teams are also more organized as the team determines the responsibility and accountability as well as the monitoring process. This enables them to maintain high quality standards and focus on customer needs.
- Pair programming allows agile teams to handle change more easily than non-agile teams. Pairing effectively and efficiently distributes knowledge and know –how across members.
- Agile teams also practice collective code ownership which reduces the risk of losing information in case a team member quits the team or company.
- Detecting and eliminating issues in development process is at the heart of agile development. Teams are able to detect problems early on due to reiterative nature of Agile practice, and effectively reduce the delivery cycle of the project.
