RM Apps**, an IT company was growing its client base. They had already moved to an Agile framework but still struggled with achieving value. Though the team used Agile Terminology and planned in sprints, they found it hard to deliver quality deliverables across each increment.
Some projects especially, the ones with external contracts often struggled with the agility of the approach vs documentation. Though the company had already invested in licenses for Jira software, adoption was quite low and the team struggled with collaboration across multiple platforms for different documents.
At the first stage, the team was trained on how to Scale and customize Agile based on the nature, scale and team-size of the projects aligned with the Crystal Framework method. Further a deeper understanding of the underlying principles, approach, estimation techniques and progress tracking metrics brought transparency and ease to the project. Coupled with a training on using Jira software they had already invested in, the team learnt how to use a single platform to add the Project Charter, export previous excel-based user stories, award story points, develop their own prioritization criteria, product backlog, sprint backlog, track progress on Scrum Board, monitor metrics of their interest like team velocity, use burn-up, burn down charts and resource utilization.
Within the first day of training the team felt greatly empowered understanding how to customize, balance and tailor the Agile Project Management approach for different projects and use effective planning and tracking tools.
