A Real-Life Scrum Case Study: How the People Made it Work
This is a real-life case study about a complex enterprise software integration project. It focuses on how an entire Scrum Team built positive and profound emotional bonds and professional respect. These feelings were the foundation for them to work better together to meet and exceed results for the end-users and stakeholders.
Project Scope
What was the Project Scope-of-work?
This internal software integration project was for an international Fortune 500 technology company. The goal was to integrate a newer and more powerful internal search engine with the internal and external websites and databases. This was so that internal business units of employees, partners, all users/stakeholders, could find the right information needed to do their jobs accurately, faster, and more efficiently.
It required constructing a front-end (internal web) interface that was easy-to-use and understand. But behind that front-end, were layers of special applications, databases, security, and authority restriction levels involved in testing and quality assessments, too. It was co-located. The work spanned global headquarters, departments, and technical centers.
