Abstract:

Since its appearance at the beginning of the century, Agile Project Management methodologies have been spreading from the software development environment where they were originated to almost all type of business and working activities, including manufacturing companies. One of the challenges of implementing this methodology is the design of the implementation process. Agile implicate a way of performing project management that breaks the traditional waterfall approach. This is why it is relevant to have a proper exposure to the concepts and an organised design process. Based on a case study of a metalworking manufacturing company of operating machines, a survey to students from master’s degree, and academic literature, the design of implementation has been divided in three steps: 1.??Exposure and comprehension of Agile methodologies. 2.??Analysis of current Project Management process and best fit for implementation. 3.??Design of blended Agile Project Management method. The outcomes of this work support the view that first exposure to Agile methodologies needs to be interactive including “on the job” activities, and the design of the implementation should be tailor made to the company and its processes, performed by an internal team, which is suggested to be cross-functional.
