What is the Customer Agility Framework?

The Customer Agility ™ is an evolution upon the Agile Manifesto rather than the existing Agile Frameworks. It contains contains two missing links in agile organizational design firstly "What work should be done" and secondly "How can work be qualified as impactful". It is not just focused on outputs but rather takes a holistic approach to an organisation and maps an INSIGHT to OUTCOME pathway for all work.

Implementing Agile

While the issues around adopting Agile are numerous the critical part is what are the benefits and can they be achieved in your organisation. Many organisations have focused on the output of work as the key outcome of Agile, in a belief that it speeds up the delivery of work. Unfortunately, Agile only appears to do this if it is allowed to eliminate waste and non-Agile activities.

For example, applying Agile in an organisation without encapsulating it in a bubble of its own requirements process (insights), financing, reporting, metrics, governance, people and processes creates duality and doubles or triples costs without driving speed. However, inside that bubble it can dramatically increase speed of delivery by eliminating waste. So Agile needs to be viewed in a holistic way with upstream and downstream activities on a single axis through the organisation in order to deliver benefits.

Customer Agility Framework ™ focuses on customer journey based organizational design that own products, services and the way to run and change them though a single software system.
