“Our clients want to know what they are buying, how much it will cost and when it will be ready. In the real world we can’t sign agile contracts.”
Undoubtedly the problem most suppliers – and their clients – face is the demand to know how much something will cost and when it will be ready. To pass up such opportunities would be commercial suicide for many companies.
But a few suppliers are willing to reframe contracts and take a different approach. As a result they are finding more work and their clients are enjoying a better result.
In this presentation Allan Kelly will look at the key elements of an Agile contract and show how they can act as a filter for weeding out poor performers.
