1. Your Business Model Isn’t Compat

1. Your Business Model Isn’t Compatible With AgileAgile isn’t universal. Some products, companies, and teams simply cannot work effectively within Agile frameworks. These may include healthcare, financial, or other types of strictly regulated organizations.These organizations typically develop their products within an already-existing model, so employees usually know exactly what functionality their product will have at the end and what steps they need to take to get there. They don’t expect any changes in the course of development — the whole process is quite rigid.If your organization happens to be in one of these camps, there’s no need for you to implement Agile frameworks. If you have a very detailed and well-defined specification that you need to comply with, and changes to the scope are not expected, it’s better to use Waterfall, an approach that takes the software development life cycle (SDLC) within successive stages, so the next stage cannot begin until the previous one is complete.Agile is ideal if you have a general understanding of what the end result of your product will be, but you aren’t quite sure and expect a lot of changes.If your product is more traditional and you know exactly what the end result will be, develop detailed product specifications and a step-by-step project plan. Stick to more traditional development methodologies such as Waterfall.
