Communication and decision making should be faster than now Development teams should take more responsibility over
processes and tools
Individuals and Interactions Over Processes and Tools POSITIVE INDICATORS
DECISIONS
Invest more in effective communication tools Let the development team to decide on the process

Working Software Over Comprehensive Documentation
On our projects, if we’re 75 percent done, we don’t have any working software to show you — "75 percent done" means we’re 75 percent in progress and 0 percent done.
COMPREHENSIVE DOCUMENTATION

Customer Collaboration Over Contract Negotiation
POSITIVE INDICATORS
Stakeholders has high-end visibility of what is going on in the team
Business can see the progress of their investments into software development
CURRENT CHALLENGES
Standards and contracts are used to blame developers. There is no trust and honesty
Contracts are overcomplicated and unrealistic
www.luxoft.com
Responding to change over following a plan
POSITIVE INDICATORS Team accommodate change systematically and in highly
disciplined way Just-in-time emergent planning
CURRENT CHALLENGES
Rigorous change management procedures; Heavyweight upfront planning
There is no continuous planning but instead team is pushed to follow initial plan with fixed scope and deadlines

of valuable software.

From PUSH

Deliver working software frequently, from a couple of weeks to a couple of months, with a
preference to the shorter timescale.
