Achieving Balance: Agility, MBSE, and Architecture

Often, Agile implementations are a struggle. Dedicated agile teams focus hard and deliver value on a regular cadence. But when results are tallied, the value teams produce may not fit neatly into the expectations of senior stakeholders. Why? In this webcast, Peter Capell addresses the importance of a practical vision to express outcomes, so that the program's “target picture” is clear to all parties involved. Peter highlights the value of tools such as Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) in engineering processes, and how the combination of architecture and MBSE can anchor the implementation within those expectations.

 

What Attendees Will Learn:

  • The concept of “just enough.”
  • How speed of delivery is only relevant when delivery is on target.
  • How the “targets” for team success begin with the program vision.
  • How modeling and architecture can serve as valuable tools to accomplish a practical vision
