Overview
IndigoBlue's James Yoxall and Jerrett Myers from the Institute for Government (IfG) will present the key findings of the IfG’s report into Government IT, Systems Failure, and discuss the pilot projects, the issues identified and the proposed solutions. The presentation will then consider the wider issues for Agile adoption in Government and look to the experiences of the commercial sector for answers. Themes will include: procurement and Agile contracts; big problems don’t necessarily demand big solutions; governance; and balancing the tension between Agility and control. The presentation will conclude with a look to the future: what comes next for Government IT; and what this means for the Agile community.
