  • Use this practice to break the project up into a series of smaller, self-contained, time-boxed, mini-projects. This practice allows teams to:
    • Collaboratively and objectively plan, execute and track the project
    • More effectively manage time, quality and cost expectations and to be agile in response to change
    • Demonstrate working software early in the project and gather important feedback from customers and users
    • Deliver higher quality, more appropriate solutions, more frequently
    • Have an operational system available early in the project that incrementally grows to become the completed system
