Talk Title: How To Use Agile Methods on Highly-Critical Systems that Require Earned Value Management
Series: Successfully Applying Agile Methods for High-Criticality Systems
Abstract: Projects using agile practices should have an identified period of performance. During that period of performance releases are defined that have specific features or capabilities. This is called a Roadmap. Each release is planned during a release planning meeting where dependencies, critical path and float are defined. Each of the features in the Roadmap should be planned into the integrated management schedule as a work package. The detailed tasks of each feature are defined during the release planning and baselined when the work package is opened. Percent complete reporting of that feature, the high value work product in development, can be used for the EVM measures. So, even if a project is using agile practices they can apply EVM in reporting progress against their plans.
Although, you may have heard that projects developed using agile cannot also use earned value management (EVM), this presentation will show how it can be done.
