The theoretical part of this paper focuses on a macro-analysis of the Agile system philosophy, one of the most popular project management frameworks from the software industry. The second part of the paper consists of a case study analyzing the practices of the Agile framework within a corporation at the level of software production. As far as methodology is concerned, the qualitative research was conducted through a case study of a team in a distributed context (“cross-team”). Participant observation was used as a tool for collecting the data about the individuals and the processes within the teams. The purpose of the research was to analyze the current state of implementation, the benefits and challenges of using the Agile project management framework and also the needs of software development teams within a multinational company. At the same time, the paper analyzes the redefinition of roles by applying the Agile project management framework within the distributed teamwork organization. The research aims to identify the underlying reasons for the choice of the Agile type of management instead of Lean management within the software development industry, focusing on the level of implementation of the Agile/Scrum methodology and principles in distributed teams.

在IT项目管理中应用敏捷原则和价值观的挑战

本文的理论部分着重于对敏捷系统哲学的宏观分析,该体系是软件行业最受欢迎的项目管理框架之一。本文的第二部分包括一个案例研究,该案例在软件生产级别分析了公司内部敏捷框架的实践。就方法论而言,定性研究是通过在分布式环境下(“跨团队”)的团队案例研究进行的。参与者观察被用作收集有关个人和团队中流程的数据的工具。该研究的目的是分析实施的当前状态,使用敏捷项目管理框架的收益和挑战以及跨国公司中软件开发团队的需求。同时,本文通过在分布式团队合作组织中应用敏捷项目管理框架来分析角色的重新定义。该研究旨在确定在软件开发行业中选择敏捷管理类型而不是精益管理的根本原因,重点是分布式团队中敏捷/ Scrum方法和原则的实施水平。
