In the industry, the demand for building custom software is continuous and pressing; this responsibility falls directly on the institutional software provider, whether internal or external. It is common to observe that development teams have problems managing work and delays in project delivery and software delivery with quality problems during the software engineering process. Thus, this study aims to implement a methodology to improve software development management and answer the research question: What success factors were found when implementing the methodology? The research structure was established as follows: 1) Comparative analysis between agile development methodologies most used in the community. 2) Conducting a case study at Yachay Tech University 3) Determine the critical success factors in adopting the methodology. 4) Statistical analysis of the results. The results obtained from the case study's critical success factors were an improvement of 60.50% in human factors, 50.27% in organizational factors, and 32.32% in other factors.

“…Scrumban memperoleh fitur Scrum yang menguntungkan dan menghilangkan kendala berlebihan, misalnya Sprint dan beberapa rapat Scrum [19]. Scrum digunakan sebagai preskriptif, sementara itu mendorong kemajuan yang pesat melalui Kanban untuk memungkinkan proyek terus meningkatkan proses [20]. Kanban juga bersifat preskriptif pada framework (Scrum) sebagai intinya, mengatur tim sekitar, mengenali iterasi timebox (batasan waktu) jika sesuai, dan membuat teknik perbaikan yang formal [21].…”

Teman Bumil (Friends of Millennial Mother) is application is an application developed to help pregnant women which contains some information from running a pregnancy program to monitoring the growth and development of pregnant women. This application was first released in 2017 with the number of active users currently having a stickiness rate of ± 13% per month which in this case is proven by the interview method conducted by researchers. However, this number is still considered unstable because it is only around 13%, where the target of stickiness rate is ± 15% for the month. Several improvements have been made by adding health charts, online classes, new media features, and registration using a new method, namely OTP (One Time Password). the results of this change have not been as expected. Therefore, in this study, we propose Revamp or an update using the Flutter framework which produces an application that can be used by both the iOS and Android platforms or also called a hybrid so that it is more interactive and according to user needs. In addition, this study also uses the Agile development method with the Scrumban model, which is a combination of Scrum and Kanban. The results of this research are in the form of a Teman Bumil application that has been revamped and has also been tested for the application developed and has received a good response from users based on randomly distributed questionnaires.

Scrumban is a combination of practices from Kanban and Scrum practices to manage the development of software based on different project situations. Scrumban practices formation can differ based on different projects and team members. However, since each method has its own pros and cons, inappropriate formation of Scrumban practices may lead to increased waste and time of development, and decreased quality, which in turn, affect the Agile organizations and cause inefficient and ineffective development. Practitioners of Kanban and Scrum are convinced that a combination of both methods is better than the use of one and thus, practitioners should be guided in their decision making. This study aims to show how Scrumban method is formed based on a combination of Kanban and Scrum methods. Scrumban formation and the identification of the factors, which assist in the combination of Kanban and Scrum were conducted through a review of the previous work and semi-structured interviews with 7 Agile experts, after which, content analysis was conducted to analyse the gathered data. Different factors-the method prescription, roles and responsibilities, adoption time, team size, batch size, requirements prioritization, feature size, lead time, technical practices, cost and quality, assist Agile team members in the formation of Scrumban by combining appropriate Kanban and Scrum practices. In addition, Scrumban were found to be more appropriate than Scrum or Kanban in saving time, improving quality and minimizing waste.
