What\u2019s not to love? Flexibility, higher levels of stakeholder\u00a0involvement, and frequent opportunities for feedback and change create a more user-focused project that (hopefully) identifies problems early in the process when they can still be easily corrected.<\/p>\n<p>But is agile really the magic wand many companies think it is?<\/p>\n<p>Well, yes\u2026and no. Agile can turn your implementation pumpkin into a lovely sparkling coach, but only if you follow the rules.<\/p>\n<h2>Potential Pitfalls of an Agile Software Implementation<\/h2>\n<p>The attraction of agile for many businesses is its flexibility. By building short sprints and frequent feedback into the development process, agile can identify problems early so they don\u2019t derail the project. But that flexibility can also create problems if you\u2019re not following true agile methodology.<\/p>\n<p>So what are the biggest pitfalls you might face? According to the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.agile247.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/VersionOne-10th-Annual-State-of-Agile-Report.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">10<sup>th<\/sup> annual State of Agile Report<\/a>, these are among the most commonly cited causes of a failed agile project:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Causes-of-Failed-Agile-Projects_480px.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2664 aligncenter\" src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Causes-of-Failed-Agile-Projects_480px.jpg\" alt=\"Causes of Failed Agile Projects_480px\" width=\"480\" height=\"234\" data-wp-pid=\"2664\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.comparehris.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Causes-of-Failed-Agile-Projects_480px.jpg?w=480&amp;ssl=1 480w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.comparehris.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Causes-of-Failed-Agile-Projects_480px.jpg?resize=300%2C146&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>How might these problems play out? Here are just a few obstacles that cause project hang-ups:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Using agile as an excuse for poor planning<\/li>\n<li>Scope creep<\/li>\n<li>Not leaving enough time for testing<\/li>\n<li>Using scrum meetings for problem solving<\/li>\n<li>Neglecting artifacts<\/li>\n<li>Rigid task distribution<\/li>\n<li>Top-down solutions<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>All of these problems can be traced back to a faulty understanding of what it means to \u201cbe agile.\u201d The foundation for a successful agile implementation is a shift in the mindset of stakeholders and contributors and a clear understanding of key success factors.<\/p>\n<h2>How to Keep Your Agile Process From Reverting to Pumpkin Status<\/h2>\n<p>So what are the factors that will set you up for a successful agile implementation? Every agile expert has a different list, but here are seven\u00a0foundational practices\u00a0you should\u00a0incorporate into\u00a0both the current software implementation and your organizational culture as a whole:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Educate team members about agile processes\u2014it\u2019s not just waterfall with different terms<\/li>\n<li>Get all stakeholders on board<\/li>\n<li>Implement scrum type meetings for documenting requirements at the project outset<\/li>\n<li>Keep sprints short to catch problems before they compound<\/li>\n<li>Build in rigorous testing protocols<\/li>\n<li>Facilitate strong communication among teams and leadership<\/li>\n<li>Define project completion in terms of metrics and deliverables<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The bottom line is that\u00a0agile is a tool, not\u00a0a magic wand. Ensuring that you have solid methodology in place will set you up for success when it comes to the details of software buildout, pilot testing, and user acceptance.<\/p>\n<p><em>If you\u2019re still in the software\u00a0research phase, use our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.comparehris.com\/hris-hrms-survey\/\">HRIS comparison tool<\/a>\u00a0to take an in-depth look at HRIS\u00a0capabilities based on your criteria.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>About the Author:\u00a0<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/susanjmcclure\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Susan McClure<\/strong><\/a> is our resident content marketer at CompareHRIS.com.
