商品描述

A methodologically sophisticated, comprehensive approach to applying the Agile fixed-price contract to IT projects while maximizing customer and supplier relationships

"Interesting and necessary for IT managers and IT lawyers."
—Walter J. Jaburek, Dipl.-Ing., Dr. iur., Dr. techn.

Approximately 50 percent of software developers use Scrum, an iterative and incremental development method for managing software projects and product or application development, in their work. The benefit of Scrum and other Agile methods is that they can address shifts in a large project that traditional managerial methods cannot.

Written by pioneers and leaders in the field of Agile and Scrum, Agile Contracts is the only book dedicated exclusively to the legal, procurement, and project management considerations of Agile contracts. Providing templates, a toolbox, and examples of Agile fixed-price contracts, the book presents an alternative option to fixed-price, time-based, and supply-based contracts—reducing the risk for both the supplier and the customer with a contract that offers the possibility of flux and flexible scenarios as a project progresses.

Agile Contracts features in-depth chapter coverage of:

  • The Agile Manifesto of 2001
  • Agility from the perspective of procurement and the software provider
  • The problems with traditional fixed-price contracts and time material contracts
  • What the Agile fixed-price contract is and how it is set up
  • Tendering based on the Agile fixed-price contract
  • How to negotiate an Agile fixed-price contract
  • Special guidelines for the legal framework of an Agile fixed-price contract
  • Adaptable Scope System
  • The Black Swan scenario
  • Contracts and procedures for the featured methodologies

Especially applicable within highly structured business organizations, Agile Contracts is a must-read for project managers, agile practitioners, procurement representatives, and IT lawyers.

「對IT經理和IT律師來說是有趣且必要的。」
- Walter J. Jaburek, Dipl.-Ing., Dr. iur., Dr. techn.

大約50%的軟體開發人員在他們的工作中使用Scrum,這是一種用於管理軟體專案和產品或應用程式開發的迭代增量式開發方法。Scrum和其他敏捷方法的好處在於它們可以應對傳統管理方法無法應對的大型專案中的變動。

《敏捷合約》的章節內容包括:

- 2001年的敏捷宣言
- 從採購和軟體供應商的角度看敏捷性
- 傳統固定價格合約和按工時計價合約的問題
