Challenge

  • Software development in a team of 40 people, enabling the control of the entire checkout system based on the end customer’s requirements.
  • Coordination and synchronisation of the Scrum teams with elements of the Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe).

The keys to success

  • Expertise in the implementation of the Scrum method.
  • Our Agile Coaching experience.
  • Experience in setting up bespoke processes for development teams.
