Abstract:The introduction of new technology generally brings new challenges and new methods to help with deployments. Agile methodologies have been introduced in the information technology industry to potentially speed up development. The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) developed this document to help those interested in learning about Scrum Methods, one of the Agile Methodologies, and how to incorporate Scrum into ITS project development. The FHWA wants stakeholders that choose to develop ITS projects using Scrum methods, to have appropriate information and assistance for successful implementation.
The two primary audiences for this document are State and local transportation agencies, and FHWA Division Office staff. For state and local agencies, this document will provide descriptions of Agile development and how it might be used on ITS projects. For FHWA staff, this document offers information on providing assistance for ITS projects that use Agile development. Within these two primary audiences there are decision makers that need to be aware of Agile development and combining it with systems engineering only at a high level. In addition, there is also useful information for contractors who are interested in using Agile development for federally funded ITS projects. The more detailed information in this document is geared toward the technical reader. Readers unfamiliar with systems engineering or agile development should first review the resources and tutorial videos identified in APPENDIX A. These are considered recommended reading and training before proceeding to read this document.
