Improvements for the Planning Process in the Scrum Method

Original language description

In today’s dynamic development environments, agile methodologies like Scrum are essential for effective software project management. Despite its popularity, the Scrum framework’s reliance on subjective intuition during the sprint planning process can lead to inconsistencies and project delays. This study aims to enhance the sprint planning phase by integrating the BeCoMe method, which is a mathematical approach designed to optimize task selection through structured compromise solutions. Utilizing a soft systems methodology, this research identifies and analyzes the existing inefficiencies in Scrum’s planning process. The implementation of the BeCoMe method in a real-world case study demonstrated significant improvements in task completion rates and overall project efficiency. The method’s structured process reduces biases, fosters team consensus, and enhances decision-making accuracy. The findings suggest that incorporating the BeCoMe method into Scrum can substantially mitigate risks, save time, and improve project outcomes by ensuring a more objective and data-driven approach to sprint planning. These insights are crucial for developers managing modern software projects, offering a robust framework for enhancing planning efficiency and success rates.
