Agile methodology started in February 2001 when 17 software development experts pooled their knowledge and experience. Now used by many companies such as Google and Amazon, this methodology is essential in a project with evolving requirements and solutions.
According to the needs of each project, team members are organized in an autonomous and effective way, reducing costs and increasing productivity. Each project is “chunked” into small parts that must be completed and delivered in a few weeks. The aim is to develop quality products and services that meet the needs of customers whose priorities are changing.
