From Mountain to Molehill – saving millions with Agile Programme Management
Dr Bill Nicholas will talk about Agile techniques to use at the programme level using examples from a real contract completed in 2010 when he was charged with delivering the budget for a major UK government agency with 60% less budget. While Agile can clearly deliver benefits at project level Bill will show his audience how much more beneficial it can be at the programme level.
Bill comes from a Software Development consultancy background and has over 15 years of experience building applications with a wide range of technologies including Silverlight, .Net, Lotus Domino & Java, both with small software houses where he was responsible for all design and development, and for major innovators such as IBM & Hewlett Packard. Bill has spent 10 years managing products, projects, programs and delivery departments with both Agile & classic methodologies including setting up and running his own company with an offshore team in central Europe & Bangalore.
