Public sector user group Socitm is launching a programme to test agile methodologies in IT projects for local government.
Agile approaches are designed to enable projects to become more flexible, responsive to change and innovative. The programme follows the government’s acceptance of recommendations made by the Institute for Government to implement a new approach to IT projects, following its bad track record of project failure.
The body for public sector IT professionals is seeking four to six volunteer organisations with suitable projects to create an Agile Pathfinder Programme (APP) starting September 2011.
