INTRODUCTION
Agile project management is a methodology that the project manager uses to deliver the
requirements incrementally and iteratively through the life cycle process. This methodology is
specific to iterative software development methodologies (Brynildsen, 2021). This is a type of
methodology and technique that the project manager uses to deliver the desired results within the
project. It includes a range of designs and approaches directly associated and aligned with
bringing the best results within the project deliverables. This report is based on a case study
based on how Agile helped build success at Your Homes Newcastle. This report covers the
different areas of Agile project management and helps deliver the desired results within the
organization.
Further, the Agile principles are measured along with the process, and the criteria are assessed
based on measuring success. Additionally, the tools, artifacts, and practices carried out in the
Agile and Scrum that could have been adopted in the organization mentioned in the case study
are discussed below. Further, the ways organization decides if they want to adopt an agile
approach within the delivered project or not are critically discussed in the context of the case
study. The areas required for agile project management are also further discussed, which helps
deliver the project's objective.
TASK 1
Introduce Agile. What is it? What are the Agile principles, and how is success measured?
Agile project management refers to an iterative approach to managing software development
projects that focuses on Continuous releases and incorporating feedback with every set of
workplace tasks. The agile life cycle comprises several incremental steps to help complete the
project. This approach is continuously used in software development projects to promote further
stability and velocity (Ivanova et al., 2021). The benefit of iteration is that it helps adjust
according to the future requirements, and there is no particular linear path that the manager needs
to follow. Agile project management is used throughout the project management process and not
just at the end of the project. This exhibits a range of central behaviors, trust, collaboration, and
empowerment in the project. There is a range of principles on which agile project management
works. The main focus delivered by agile project management is that it satisfies the customers
through the early and continuous delivery of objectives. In the context of the case study, the agile

project manager requires to deliver the Homes Newcastle, which further helped in terms of
bringing the success within the project and providing the results of the project. In this particular
case study, the Agile project management helped achieve productivity from the resources
available within the project model. Through this technique, the project manager was able to bring
genuine value to the project, which is aligned with the business goals that are associated with the
business.
Customer satisfaction is treated as the top priority of the project management as it helps
attain the objective within the project cause. There is a range of principles on which the agile
project management technique works; these principles directly contribute to achieving desired
goals within the project (Revutska and Maršíková, 2021). Elegant project management functions
on satisfying the customers with the help of continuous and easy delivery of the valuable
software that exists within project management. Through this, the project manager can process
agility and further respond to the changes that occur in a timely fashion. Through this, the
customers related to the project get happy as the project can be delivered effectively with no such
technique.
Agile project management helps the project manager in terms of changing the requirements.
The flexible approach of agile helps in dealing with the changes that exist in the environment and
further delivering the project results in the n best manner possible. The values of the project are
provided frequently and are used further to enhance the process and maximize the delivery
results within the project limits. Through this technique, the projects are built on different terms,
and people are further motivated to deliver the results using the other motivation factors. The
Agile project management technique is considered the primary measure of the progress through
which an organization uses a range of valid approaches through which the expected results of the
project are delivered to the customers. The organization maintains a sustainable development
through which the developers, sponsors, and users will be able to maintain a set practice with a
constant amount of pace within the project. The agility in the project is enhanced through
continuous excellence, which further helps in technical merit, and sound design, which helps
improve the skill. These principles are also used to allow the team to create not a working
software but also aid in the development and recreate stable products of high quality. Through,
the project manager states that simplicity is the art of maximizing the effectiveness of work
associated with the project and is not considered essential enough to deliver the essentials of the
