Procuring for agile: thoughts on what good looks like webinar

Based on a white paper on when and how to procure projects which are towards the agile end of the waterfall-agile spectrum. These approaches have been applied in sectors such as mining, aviation and civil engineering. This webinar, delivered in an interview format with a panel of three of the white paper’s authors, covered:

• when could an agile approach be suitable?
• is your organisation ready for it: the internal changes that are needed for an agile contracting approach to be successful
• our top ten characteristics of an agile contract
• preparing the contract: it’s a project
• selecting the agile provider
• key considerations for agile contract management.

The panel illustrated their points with examples from real life projects.
