Agile OffshoreTM directly adopts some Agile practices and adjusts others in order to achieve the underlying goal of delivering products that meet customer needs while operating in a global environment that encourages productivity.
Visibility
At the end of each iteration (typically every 2 to 4 weeks), the stakeholders see a working system demonstration. Agile OffshoreTM teams also provide progress metrics through burndown charts on a daily basis.
Flexibility to incorporate change
Change happens. Regular demonstrations of functionality give you the opportunity to provide feedback and request changes in the project’s backlog of features. Agile OffshoreTM development processes give your business the flexibility to determine the work that is tackled in each iteration.
Shorter time to market
Business priorities drive the order of work accomplished in an Agile OffshoreTM environment. If a subset of the product will provide a significant level of ROI, then that work is completed before the remainder of the project work. The time-boxed iteration schedule provides regular intervals where code may be considered for release to the market to take advantage of the consumer demand.
