“…On the basis of already existing assessment models, Hohl et al identified the need for a tailored assessment model for the agile transformation in the automotive domain. For a tailored assessment model valid for the automotive domain, Hohl et al extended ASPICE by additional properties and outcomes with respect to agile aspects. Their approach aims at providing insights into how processes could be improved to align with agile principles .…”

Almost all companies struggle with software systems that are getting increasingly complex. Therefore, in particular large companies often use software product lines, which provide an efficient way to manage software reuse as well as the high complexity. However, software product lines seem to be too slow to react to changes. Agile development approaches promise to meet this demand. At the same time, integrating an agile approach is not always easy. Consequently, there is a need for a transformation model that supports the agile transformation without harming the benefits of software product lines. In this paper, we present the results of a literature review regarding agile transformation in large software companies. Our results summarize the insights from 85 papers and present a list of 20 tasks and tasks that are recommended by several researchers to be considered during the transformation. On the basis of these results, we create an agile transformation model—the so‐called “agile hamburger”—that contains these tasks and preserves software product lines. Since the model is rather coarse grained and generic, we also support the adaption to different teams by presenting an assessment model tailored to the demands of the automotive domain.

Agile Product Lines are combinations of agile and product-line techniques. Introducing agile software development methods into software product lines makes the development processes evolve from predictive to iterative and incremental and offers flexibility to react on customers' changing requirements and market demand and deliver high quality software. However, this combination is still challenging and the maturity of an agile adoption is often hard to determine. Assessing the current situation regarding the combination is thus an essential step towards a successful integration of agile methods into software product lines. Following a specific research approach, we have built an assessment model called AgiPL-AM allowing self-evaluations within the team in order to determine the current state of agile software development in combination with software product lines. AgiPL-AM, our model for assessing organizational agility of Agile Product Line approaches, is comprised of six categories (five are related to agile principles and one to product line architecture) and five levels of maturity. The assessment results demonstrate that AgiPL-AM has the ability to reveal and pinpoint agile product-line approach strengths and weaknesses. It makes recommendations to improve the status and may give a guideline for this improvement.
