Agile project software - tool to support agile project planning, controlling and communications



 
 

Agile project software (also called agile project manager) is a type of programs that can be used in agile project management. Let's consider some principles of agile project planning and how agile project software can be used there. Agile project organization is usually used in software development, but these methods can be also applied in other fields. One of the proper examples of these methods is agile project Scrum that is used in agile software development.

Agile project software and time management:
Agile project planning doesn't directly involve long-term planning, but it stands for "timeboxes" which mean that the schedule is divided into a number of separate time periods (two to six weeks long), with each period having its own deliverables, deadline and budget. VIP Task Manager can be considered as an agile project tool that allows proper schedule management. With a help of this agile project manager you can divide your project into timeboxes, plan deliverables, deadlines and budgets for each one. In general, agile project planning stands for responding to change over following a strict plan, so VIP Task Manager, as agile project software, allows flexible modifications of timetable and worksheets.

Agile project software and teamwork, collaboration:
Formation and supervision of agile project team is very significant aspect of agile project planning methods. Agile project team composition is usually cross-functional and self-organizing without consideration of any existing corporate hierarchy or the corporate roles of team members. Agile methods aspire to face-to-face communication between agile project team members. If agile project team members work in different locations, they maintain daily contact through videoconferencing, phone, e-mail, or agile project tool. VIP Task Manager is agile project manager that allows team members to communicate in context of their tasks. All tasks in this agile project tool have Comments panel that can be used by team members for discussing their work.

Agile project software and work control:
One of the principles of agile project management says "Customer collaboration over contract negotiation". This is one of agile project tracking peculiarities. Agile project tracking means that stakeholders and the customer representative periodically review progress and re-evaluate priorities in order to optimize the return on investment and ensure alignment with customer needs and company goals. VIP Task Manager is agile project manager that helps multiple project participants to review project evolution in terms of tasks completion, time, costs and outputs. This agile project software allows team members to coordinate project priorities across multiple team members.

Any agile project participant who uses agile project software can benefit from it. For example Scrum agile project planning implies creation of Product Backlog. This is the product requirements list where Product Owner sorts requirements according to a principle "valuable above, less valuable below". Product backlog can be easily created, managed and shared with a help of agile project manager, such as VIP Task Manager.
