Title: [http://tinyurl.com/bwxluay '''Practices for Scaling Lean & Agile Development: Large, Multisite & Offshore Product Development with Large-Scale Scrum''' ]
  
  
 +
Reflecting our work over recent years, this text explores scaling lean and agile development with [[Large-Scale Scrum]]. It was written with my co-author [http://www.odd-e.com/ Bas Vodde], who has long and in-depth experience with very large agile product development and enterprise transformations, and like me, has worked in large embedded systems.
  
  
 +
It explores concrete practices for large-scale lean product development or agile development with large-scale Scrum, including requirements, contracts, architecture and design, agile offshore development, large-scale multisite development, coordination, and planning multi-hundred-person product group development, and more.

My current focus is scaling lean and agile methods for a single product group of 200 to 2000 people (Asia, Europe & NA&mdash;usually multisite including offshore), and large (10,000+ people) enterprise transformations to lean and agile methods. Collecting these as [[Large-Scale Scrum]]. Much of my work is in large embedded systems (telecomm, control systems, printers, ...), investment banking, and energy and exploration industries.
