Scaling Aglie for the Enterprise with Intelligent ALM

Agile development promises faster releases, better customer alignment, higher quality, and lower development costs – however, it can be tough to scale Agile for an enterprise. 

Implementing Agile practices within large enterprise environments involves more than just scaling the number of people working on the project. Enterprise environments introduce a number of different scalability issues: team size, distributed sites, compliance requirements, domain or product complexity, technological complexity and organizational distribution (to name but a few). Adequately supporting large distributed Agile teams working on such complex product lines requires an enterprise ALM solution.
