I’m blogging the conference Agile Approaches for Delivering Business Value
A Square Peg in a Round Hole: Agile and fixed-price contracts
Duncan Pierce, Amarinda Consulting Ltd
Summary
- Square peg: Agile processes flex scope freely and have open-ended timescales.
- Round hole: Fixed-price contracts usually come with a deadline and strict limits on how much scope change can occur - often none at all.
Luckily you don’t have to hit agile particularly hard to make it fit, while being internally agile gives the fixed-price supplier some interesting options.
In this presentation we’ll explore the value of those options and what has to change for agile to work in a fixed-price world.
