Are projects agile?
summary
Workshop runs groups that classify organisations into four contexts – agency, systems integrator, software vendor and software-as-a-service vs bespoke client code – then map project types and alternatives. Groups build posters and conclude many outcomes favor an ongoing product/stream model: deliver continuous epics and stories, treat sprints as small projects, and use shared-risk early engagement to buy trust with clients. Constraints include public‑sector procurement and projects for accounting/tax reasons which preserve fixed scope but blunt agility.
