AgilePM® 3.3 Summary To enable the philosophy of driving out best business value through projects aligned to clear business goals, frequent delivery and collaboration of motivated and empowered people, DSDM offers eight principles, supported by definition of, and guidance on, people, products, process and practices. All of this guidance needs to be applied with common sense and pragmatism; adapting to the project’s environment and context, while preserving the ethos of DSDM presented here.AgilePM® 4.1 Introduction to the DSDM Principles The eight principles of DSDM support DSDM’s philosophy that “best business value emerges when projects are aligned to clear business goals, deliver frequently and involve the collaboration of motivated and empowered people”. Compromising any of the principles undermines the philosophy of DSDM and introduces risk to the successful outcome of the project. If a team doesn’t follow all of these principles then it won’t get the full benefit of the approach. The collective application of DSDM’s principles brings the philosophy to life. The eight principles are: 1. Focus on the business need 2. Deliver on time 3. Collaborate 4. Never compromise quality 5. Build incrementally from firm foundations 6. Develop iteratively 7. Communicate continuously and clearly 8. Demonstrate control 4.2 Principle 1 - Focus on the Business Need Every decision taken during a project should be viewed in the light of the overriding project goal - to deliver what the business needs to be delivered, when it needs to be delivered. 4.3 Principle 2 - Deliver on Time Delivering a solution on time is a very desirable outcome for a project and is quite often the single most important success factor. Late delivery can often undermine the very rationale for a project, especially where market opportunities or legal deadlines are involved. Even for projects without a need for a fixed end date, on-time delivery of intermediate or contributing products is still the best way to demonstrate control over evolution of the solution. 4.4 Principle 3 - Collaborate Teams that work in a spirit of active cooperation and commitment will always outperform groups of individuals working only in loose association. Collaboration encourages increased understanding, greater speed and shared ownership, which enable teams to perform at a level that exceeds the sum of their parts.
