Extension of the WSJF Method with the Concept of Efficiency for Scrum Team

Original language description

The paper proposes a modification of the WSJF method using the efficiency principle of the DEA method. WSJF method is used for task prioritization in the Scrum method in agile project teams. Agile project teams use prioritization when se- lecting tasks to tackle during sprints. Task prioritization (also known as User Stories) is a key attribute for the success of the Scrum method, i.e., for meeting customer needs and expectations in the project. The authors propose an extension of the WSJF calcu- lation using a modified Fibonacci sequence that is used in the Scrum method for esti- mating user stories. However, the contribution of the paper is a new perspective and a new way of calculating WSJF, where the extension of the method with the efficiency principle provides new information about the nature of tasks for the team and project management. The paper responds to the growing need for quantification of practices in agile project management, especially in teamwork, according to the Scrum method. The paper includes a case study that illustrates the use of the proposed modification for common practice in project management and the Scrum method. In this paper, the authors propose the use of weights for calculating the cost of delay in the WSJF method and a correction for calculating the WSJF score.
