Furthermore, project demands are increasing in terms of sustainability, aesthetics and building performance. Our journey to becoming an Agile organisation In 2019, Staticus defined 5 key strategic directions for its development. One of these was to embrace Agile methodology and become an Agile organisation. The goal was to improve our business resilience. We wanted to further strengthen trust and communication between teams while making our planning more effective, and enhancing our ability to manage change. Our journey to becoming an Agile organisation started with our project realisation teams. Having cross-functional teams is one of the main principles of Agile, so we made these teams cross-functional. However, we noticed that we still had some issues with our ways of working. We understood that these could be solved by applying more Agile principles. — Client-centricity is a critical element of the Agile methodology, and we understood that we could ensure greater orientation towards the customer by building Strong and regular collaboration with customers and stakeholders, and embracing the principles of Transparency and Adapting to change. — We could use the Agile principle of Transparency to ensure team members always had a clear understanding of the overall situation in the whole company, and understood the purpose and direction of individual teams and divisions. — Working in iterations, combined with Transparency, could address the lack of clarity around roles and responsibilities To meet these needs and ensure we remain a resilient business in a changing landscape, we must be faster and more flexible than ever. Our continued evolution as an Agile organisation is fundamental to this. some staff experienced, and ensure a common approach to planning within the company. — We could encourage more self- reflection and continuous learning using the Agile principles of Inspecting and adapting, and Looking for continuous improvement. This would be especially impactful when combined with Working in iterations. Key achievements in 2022 - A new Agile framework In the Summer of 2022, we worked closely with our project realisation teams to apply these Agile principles. We also held a series of workshops with different teams, during which we identified other pain points that Agile could be used to address. Tottenham Hale Works | London, United Kingdom
