| Abstract [eng] |
The Agile project management philosophy is becoming more and more popular and is being applied in many areas, not only in software development. Its main principles are open communication and flexible assessment of the product to market. Unlike the traditional waterfall approach, Agile projects are planned in iterations, with smaller phases and clear objectives. While Agile reduces the risk of changes in vision, timelines or budget, it does not have a unified risk management methodology and mechanisms to deal with problems that arise in later phases. It also lacks tools to track and control risks at different stages of the project. This paper describes a methodology in which key artefacts of Agile projects are evaluated according to their attribute status - by regularly updating attribute data, potential risks can be detected and addressed early, thereby increasing the efficiency of the project team and providing transparent reporting to stakeholders. The methodology includes risk identification and control throughout the risk lifecycle. The proposed methodology is tested experimentally with three projects. |
