Abstract

Context Although agile software development methods such as SCRUM and DSDM are gaining popularity, the consequences of applying agile principles to software product management have received little attention until now. Objective In this paper, this gap is filled by the introduction of a method for the application of SCRUM principles to software product management. Method A case study research approach is employed to describe and evaluate this method. Results This has resulted in the ‘agile requirements refinery’, an extension to the SCRUM process that enables product managers to cope with complex requirements in an agile development environment. A case study is presented to illustrate how agile methods can be applied to software product management. Conclusions The experiences of the case study company are provided as a set of lessons learned that will help others to apply agile principles to their software product management process.
