“…Qumer et al (2007) provide a maturity model called Agile Adoption and Improvement Model (AAIM). It is an extension for the Agile Software Solution Framework (ASSF) (Qumer and Henderson-Sellers, 2009). The ASSF describes on a high abstraction level an approach for the creation and context related adaptation of an agile software development process.…”

E-government projects in public administration often fail due to lacking communication and unclear requirements. Furthermore, users are usually not involved in the development of digital products. The agile transformation offers a promising approach to improve communication and the affinity to change regarding requirements in e-government projects. In addition, the agile transformation, as a paradigm shift from a planoriented to an user-centered development, enables a high degree of user-orientation. In order to support and measure the agile transformation, a screening instrument was developed in previous research and was adapted to the context of public administration. This screening instrument enables the measurement of the progress in agile transformation using a personality questionnaire. In this paper we define a seven-step prototypical process model for the application of the screening instrument in public administrations. This process model accompanies the use of the screening instrument in seven steps as a recommendation for usage and enables a targeted and continuous improvement in the agile transformation process in the context of public administration authorities.

“…Further feedback from industry as well as from researchers on these characteristics have been obtained with the aim of eliciting, by means of a field survey, the most relevant and important SDM characteristics for practitioners (Qumer and Henderson-Sellers, 2009). An agile or hybrid SDM can be built and then tailored on these framework characteristics for a particular situation when using a situational method engineering approach (Firesmith and Henderson-Sellers, 2002).…”

In a real software application development environment, a pre-defined or fixed methodology, whether planbased or agile, is unlikely to be successfully adopted "off-the-shelf". Agile methods have recognised that a method should be tailored to each situation. The purpose of this paper is to present an agile e-toolkit software service to facilitate the tailoring of agile processes in the overall context of agile method adoption and improvement. The agile e-toolkit is a web-based tool to store and manage agile practices extracted from various agile methods and frameworks. The core component of the e-toolkit is the agile knowledge-base or repository. The agile knowledge-base contains agile process fragments. Agile consultants or teams can then use agile process fragments stored in the agile knowledge-base for the tailoring of situation-specific agile processes by using a situational method engineering approach. The e-toolkit software service has been implemented using a service-oriented cloud computing technology platform (Software as a Service-SaaS). The agile e-toolkit specifications and software application details have been summarized in this paper.
