There are a number of frameworks that have been used for agile development and
project management. The purpose of this assignment is to discuss how projects are
planned and executed in SCRUM, Dynamic Systems Development Model (DSDM),
and Lean Software Development. Using real-world examples in your assignment is
highly desired. One way to do that is to relate any projects at your workplace or
from your research and think about how you, as a project manager, would run the
same project under those frameworks.
Write a five to six (5-6) page paper in which you:
1..Analyze the manner in which projects are planned and executed under the
following frameworks and provide one (1) example for each:
SCRUM
DSDM
Lean Software Development
2. Highlight three (3) benefits and three (3) trade-offs for each of the following
frameworks:
SCRUM
DSDM
Lean Software Development
3. Determine the potential obstacles for using the following frameworks and analyze
the major risks and issues associated with each of them.
SCRUM
DSDM
Lean Software Development
4. Suggest key strategies from the perspective of a project manager to avoid the
obstacles you have identified in Question 3. Recommend key actions that you can
take in order to mitigate the risks associated with those frameworks. Provide three
(3) real-world examples to support your suggestion.
