Have you ever tried to manage a closed scope project using agile methodologies, only to realize that the notorious "scope creep" had silently made its way into your meticulously planned backlog? Join us on this quest for flexible control, happy clients, and healthier teams.

Prerequisite
Participants should have a basic understanding of agile methodologies, scrum framework and scope management.

Outline
In the session we will take a look at common approaches and misconceptions when introducing agile concepts into closed scope project management. We will explore how agile development can provide more flexibility and a closer oversight in the build phase of a Drupal application, while also trying to understand how we can minimize the pitfalls of this dual approach in terms of client expectations, scope management and team efficiency.

Learning Objectives
In this session, participants will gain a deeper understanding of:
- Which agile development techniques can be successfully used in closed scope projects.
- How to avoid the typical points of failure of this type of hybrid management methodology.
- How to make the most of the development team’s effort while ensuring quality delivery in accordance to the project’s roadmap.
- How to foster productive communication with the client and be mindful of their expectations within the established scope, budget, and timeline.
