CONTEMPORARY’s Agile Business Intelligence
(CABI) Delivery Methodology

Delivering high quality functionality in accordance with user requirements

Designing any complex technology solution can be difficult. Each one is a unique entity and there are usually no “master blueprints” to refer to.

TRADITIONALLY:

Over the years a number of methodologies have been developed and utilised to manage these projects. Traditionally the most widely utilised solution is a waterfall approach of extensively specifying and prescribing the functionality required upfront and then making formal change requests the only mechanism to alter it. The functional specification describes in the smallest detail exactly how everything should look and feel. This forms the basis of a rigid project delivery plan which the developers then adhere to and create the solution’s capabilities in accordance with. At the end of the project the completed solution is tested and integrated. In theory this ensures the project is delivered to time and budget and performs exactly as the business specified. In practice this never happens.

THE REALITY:

What quite often also happens is that errors or ambiguity in the functional specification are often not discovered until completion. Sometimes misunderstandings can be baked into the very core of a system leading to massive implementation problems and cost overruns.
