Scrum is an Agile management methodology for distributed software development. Levi9 Global Sourcing adopted Scrum as a preferred agile methodology after successfully implementing Scrum on several turnkey projects.
By combining Scrum-based methodology with our proven “Nearshore Model” to software delivery we ensure better communication and alignment between our programmers and business users, which allows for quick reaction to changing requirements and rapid delivery of desired functional software.
“On practice combination of Scrum with our nearshore delivery model allowed us to get more direct engagement from the client’s project management, and achieve unprecedented level of communication between the teams. As a result continuous feedback and collaborative planning enable speedier delivery of robust code, with the ability to make needed changes along the way.
Levi9 Global Sourcing, SD Line Manager
Levi9 suggested Scrum as a methodology of choice to one of its key clients OnGuard. As a global leader in credit management the client realized importance of innovation, speed and responsiveness to ever-changing business needs so decided to explore the benefits of Agile to enhance productivity and streamline time-to-market. Applying its proven formula Levi9 aligned got direct engagement from the customer, which resulted in accelerated delivery of product that met desired business needs and yielded financial results.
OnGuard and Levi9 have been working together for about a year now. David Taylor is very enthusiastic about the results and the cooperation. “It‟s all going very smoothly. The programmers in the Netherlands and Serbia talk to each other every day, and there is a delivery meeting after each sprint. Communication with the people in the Netherlands is also proceeding perfectly. Levi9 provides tools that enable us to evaluate progress at management level. Of course we have also faced a few challenges in working together. But the people at Levi9 have a very down-to-earth mentality. Any problems are discussed and resolved quickly.”
Thanks to Levi9‟s flexibility and fine-tuned approach, we have been able to do this much faster than if we had used our own resources. David Taylor, CEO OnGuard.
