Abstract

Every company is required to be more agile in order to continue to survive and grow, so it is necessary to form a leaner and more agile work team to have a big impact on the company. The implementation of the agile approach needs to be evaluated as well as the level of project success of the agile team so that it is hoped that they can work more optimally. This research aims to find out and understand the implementation of the agile approach and the level of project success in the work teams that are formed. The variables that are the initial guide in conducting research are divided into the variables contained in the agile practice guide, namely the project life cycle, creating an agile environment, delivering products in an agile environment, organizational considerations. Apart from that, the research also explored the variables contained in the dimensions of project success. This research was carried out using a qualitative approach, collecting related documents and in-depth interviews conducted on the agile team which was the object of research. Next, to test the validity of the data, a member check process was carried out using data obtained from interviewees, namely leaders and agile team members. After processing and analyzing the data, it was discovered that the team did not fully implement the agile approach, including in relation to project approach objectives, project charter and team charter, location of work team members, and dependence on parties outside the team as well as in terms of the level of project success, including project effectiveness not being achieved, business and direct success in terms of cost savings has not been achieved, and new technology, products and market shares have not been created. The gaps that occur between theory and what is implemented in the field are expected to become input for further improvements.
