AGILE

In the last class of digital government, we were taught about AGILE. However, we were first introduced the concept of Agile in Project management. 

Agile is a methodology in which tasks can be divided into various components of continuous phase, which in turn allows to reassess and re-evaluate the tasks being performed during the project. Agile can be implemented in for large scale projects. The Government of Canada is continuously working towards implementing the concepts of Agile management. The techno-management world is fast paced and continuously changing. So, Agile provides the ability to cope up in the ever-changing environment with minimum deviations from the project scope.

Policy makers can be seen adopting a horizontal approach, and implementing the techniques of Project management including Agile, Scrum and Lean Sigma. This would in turn help in the iterative planning process and continuous improvement.
