CIO.com defines Agile as “a project management methodology that uses short development cycles called ‘sprints’ to focus on continuous improvement in the development of a product or service.” Agile was established to optimize the commercial development of software. While it has been applied in many other ways, the purposes, requirements, and regulatory demands of government projects require significant adaptation. ‘Pure’ Agile is not compatible with the way the Federal Government does business. However, a modified version has been proven useful, especially regarding information technology (IT) projects.
