History of Waterfall Project Management
Project management processes were
developed based on step-by-step
manufacturing models the United States
military used during World War II.
Waterfall process developed from highly
structured physical environments where after-
the-fact changes are prohibitively costly, if not
impossible.

Requirements:
Gathering the list of product features
desired from a project.
Requirements
Design
Development
Testing
Deployment
In the waterfall method to managing
projects, you complete work in stages. You
do not move to another stage until you
have completed the work in the previous
stage.
STAGES DEFINED
Development:
The stage where product features
are created.
Design:
The stage where an outline or plan is
made for creating individual product
features.
Testing:
The stage where the developed
product features are ensured to
work.
Deployment:
The final stage of a project where
completed product features are
moved to a state where they can be
used.

Waterfall Project Stats

The Standish Group defines project success as on time, on budget, and with all planned features. They do not report
how many projects are in their database but say that the results are from projects conducted from 2002 through 2010.

Start to Finish Issues with Waterfall
• Must have all
requirements up front
• Estimation is complex
• Must understand
capabilities of all
involved
Start
Must resist change or document
change requests (which extends
schedule and budget)
Team must create and
maintain volumes of
documentation
Customers or stakeholders
may not be available for
questions
Finish
• Final testing
• Must wait for full and
complete user
feedback
• Value not achieved
until end
Insanity: doing the same thing over and
over and expecting different results.

You do not move to another stage until you have completed the work in the previous stage. STAGES DEFINED Development: The stage where product features are created. Design: The stage where an outline or plan is made for creating individual product features. Testing: The stage where the developed product features are ensured to work. Deployment: The final stage of a project where completed product features are moved to a state where they can be used.

  1. **Review Statement
  2. **Review Statement
  3. The Statement of Values from the Agile Manifesto is often misunderstood. I’ve highlighted the word
  4. Five Myths of Agile Development Source: http://blogs.versionone.com/agile_management/   Myth #1: Agile Development is Undisciplined Interestingly, most of the practices associated with agile development have been around for decades. It is only more recently that the practices have been packaged together as collections of interdependent practices. These practices, whether incorporated within Extreme Programming, Scrum, Feature-Driven Development, or any other agile methodology, really help define the innovation which has taken place. Myth #2 – Agile Teams Do Not Plan This misconception generally relates to a lack of understanding of an agile, or incremental, planning approach. Most agile teams spend as much, if not more, time planning their projects. Myth #3 – Agile is Not Predictable Agile development replaces detailed, speculative plans with high-level, feature-driven plans that acknowledge the inherent complexity and uncertainty of software development projects. Ongoing reconciliation of actual effort to original plans is replaced with incremental planning and re-planning at a more granular level throughout the development process. Myth #4 – Agile Does Not Scale Over the last decade, enough agile projects involving hundreds of people have been performed by multiple teams, in multiple locations, across multiple time zones to have a high degree of confidence in the ability of agile development to scale.
  5. The Agile methodology is an approach to project management, typically used in software development. It helps teams respond to the unpredictability of building software through incremental, iterative work cadences, known as sprints. The results of this “inspect-and-adapt” approach to development greatly reduce both development costs and time to market. Because teams can gather requirements at the same time they’re gathering requirements, the phenomenon known as “analysis paralysis” can’t really impede a team from making progress. And because a team’s work cycle is limited to two to four weeks, it gives stakeholders recurring opportunities to calibrate releases for success in the real world.
  6. In essence, it could be said that the agile development methodology helps companies build the right product. Instead of committing to market a piece of software that hasn’t even been written yet, agile empowers teams to optimize their release as it’s developed, to be as competitive as possible in the marketplace. In the end, a development agile methodology that preserves a product’s critical market relevance and ensures a team’s work doesn’t wind up on a shelf, never released, is an attractive option for stakeholders and developers alike.
  7. ***ALLOWS YOU TO GO FASTER?
  8. William Edwards Deming (October 14, 1900 – December 20, 1993) was an American statistician, professor, author, lecturer and consultant. He is perhaps best known for his work in Japan. There, from 1950 onward, he taught top management how to improve design (and thus service), product quality, testing and sales (the last through global markets)[1] through various methods, including the application of statistical methods. Deming is probably most famous for the Deming Cycle, which has lives on in most business sites in America in some form. Kind of looks like Scrum, right? So how does this apply to Continuous Delivery.
