Abstract

A principle objective of agile methods is to reduce well-known risks associated with common systems development project failures. While there is extensive academic literature on risk management and its growing importance, literature in relation to risk management in an agile context is still in infancy. The purpose of this research paper is to highlight the extent to which risk management practices are incorporated into a specific agile method known as DSDM. The methodology deployed for this research involved a case study of a change management consultancy firm dedicated to the use of the Dynamic Systems Development Method (DSDM).
