CHF49.95
Find out how to get beyond Fixed-Price, Fixed-Scope contracts to have the product developed that you need, when you need it!
Are the “Agile Guys” in your company telling you that everything is different now that you are doing Agile software development or Scrum? Indeed, “Agile” has revolutionized how we develop software products. “Customer collaboration over contract negotiations,” they tell you. But, as a customer or supplier of software services, you know that there is too much at stake to work with just a verbal agreement.
What has changed? What does it mean for procurement and sales? What do you need to know? How can the contract help you achieve a good result? What are the traps to avoid?
This book tells you what you need to know to create the right contract for your project. This book is not about legalese. Instead, it will enable you to:
- Understand the risks of a project and how Scrum helps you mitigate those risks
- Understand enough of the software development process to be an informed customer
- Understand “Agile”, “Scrum” and the related terminology
- Understand the different contract types and the behaviors they encourage
- Create playing rules that enable customer and supplier to collaborate effectively and build the right product together
- Create a contract based on proven approaches to collaboration within or across company boundaries
I close with a list of recommendations for your next contract based on my experience with million-dollar Scrum projects. And check out the glossary for a list of over 60 commonly used terms in the Agile community.
