Joschka Andreas Hüllmann, Kariko Kimathi, Pauline Weritz · Information Systems Management · 2024
While agile project management offers benefits such as faster time to market and improved collaboration, scaling it to larger projects presents challenges, particularly in safety-critical industries. This research provides insights into the resistance to agile adoption due to regulatory constraints and other barriers. The findings contribute to information systems literature by identifying four challenges (organizational, technological, behavioral, regulatory) and complementing solutions to show how large-scale agile can work in safety-critical industries.
