During the discovery session with the client, we found the company was seeking for more than just modernizing their product software framework, they were looking for guidance on modern agile practices and ways of working. With that insight, we applied agile engineering principles during the engagement and the team was able to significantly improve velocity and quality of delivered software. ºÚÁÏÃÅ conducted several activities and workshops to enable them about test-driven development, pair programming, agile coaching and flexible learning approaches to keep the processes moving and escalate the learnings.
