Structured Agility
Our experience has proven that keeping agile practices within the realization of IT projects maximizes development efficiency as well as return on investment. However, projects must respect a budget and a schedule and include defined functionalities.
To ensure the success of your IT projects, Logient’s team has therefore adopted structured agility, a hybrid approach to rigorous project management that emphasizes your business needs and offers you better visibility on the progress of your projects.

Sound Project Management
Project management oversees the clear definition of the scope and features to be developed, the schedule to be followed and the budget to be respected. If, along the way, one of the three elements fluctuates, then the other two variables will vary accordingly.
Rigorous project management ensures that you continuously monitor these three components. This responsibility will be entrusted to the specialists from Logient’s project office (PMO) who will communicate with you proactively, leaving the development teams to devote all their energy and talent to creating innovative functionalities.

Our Rigorous & Flexible Structured Agility
The structured agility we offer comes down to keeping iterative development practises split into sprints, around which planning, creation, validation and implementation will take place.
The structured agility difference: the addition of a governance framework to rigorously monitor budget, schedule and scope. In other words, the project office (PMO) maintains its raison d’être, manages the entire portfolio of projects and assigns a project manager (PM) for each of them. The PM participates and supports all stakeholders to ensure transparency and monitoring of scope, deadline and budget.

Importance of a Product Owner (PO) With Roles & Responsibilities
The role and responsibilities of the product owner (PO) remain as important as ever in a context of structured agility. The direct involvement of clients is essential. We recommend that the product owner (PO) be a member of the client’s team because he or she is in the best position to understand the overall context and business issues. Logient also offers training to learn how to exercise this role if necessary. Finally, we can also play this role for you, by assigning one of our POs to your project.
By doing business with the experienced Logient team, you can count on a partner who places the needs and participation of customers at the heart of their work.
