In this experience report we examine the large scale deployment of Agile in BMC's Infrastructure Management Division. We identify and demonstrate several critical success factors such as visible intentionality, empowerment, risk taking, top notch Agile consulting, applying Agile as part of the overall software engineering "stack" and changing organizational structures to better apply Agile. In particular, we highlight the relationship between empowerment and risk-taking, and suggest the two should be managed in tandem as the foundation on which successful Agile projects can evolve. Finally we emphasize the importance of rolling agile out across multiple corporate functions - marketing, sales, support, professional serivces, etc. - and to the end customers, in order to get the full benefit at the corporate level.
