After establishing transformation goals and a transformation roadmap, we were engaged early on to fine-tune implementation efforts with the initial business department, providing agile coaching for the key roles in the organization.

We worked with the change and project management functions early on to create an integrated plan that included team structures, product and sprint cycles, specific training for newly appointed staff, and transformation workshops for ongoing technical projects that used Agile. From a tooling perspective, we helped with the integration and sprint management based on MS Azure Dev Ops. together with various development and process control tools. Furthermore, we co-developed the relevant Agile trainings with the change management function, which were digitalized for a number of online trainings as part of the agile learning journey.

This provided a sound basis for the process oriented part of agility, shifting the focus to the agile mindset. The actual doing of requirements engineering with product managers and product owners was critical to our approach, which was supported by team trainings on an agile mindset, incremental value, and continuous improvement. We embedded the specific actions through scrum master coaching in retrospectives and direct implementation in subsequent sprints.
