This handbook is a great innovation that blends AgilePM, the GDS Service Design Manual, and some emerging thinking from the Agile Business Consortium around business agility. It offers practitioners involved in the design and delivery of digital services a mature Agile approach that embraces Agile product and service development in the context of Agile business change-focused programmes and projects. It allows users to gain the benefits of a rapid, responsive approach without introducing governance and control-related risks.
Agilesphere is delighted to see AgileDS enter public beta. Our public sector clients, in particular, have been looking to close the gap between the existing Agile qualifications and the reality of delivery of government digital services. AgileDS closes this gap and provides a rigorous qualification that recognises the commitment of both the individual and the organisation to developing digital skills.
The Agile Business Consortium is the professional body for business agility, and has been developing and contributing to agile knowledge for over 25 years.
