Abstract

The Army General Staff has identified the need for a strategic management tool for the numerous and widespread infrastructures belonging to the Italian Army. The generic requirement has called for various functions at different levels of information aggregation and fusion. The first attempt at finding a solution was based on the traditional software engineering approach which pointed out the difficulty of producing a high-definition requirement document. A customized “SCRUM Agile” software development methodology was then implemented producing excellent results. The process is described with particular focus on the User Community–Development Team relationship and the evolution of the associated Product Backlog. Results on the software cost reduction and on user satisfaction are reported. A detailed description of the User Stories evolution through the various Sprints is presented as a case study.
