It is based on the reality of the difficulties and the levers of success of the projects, and on the golden rule of producing value for the customer.

Our consultants, Project Managers, Product Owners or Scrum Masters, will support you in your projects with agility.
Your challenges
Users are more and more demanding on the evolutions, the quality and the deadlines brought to the IT projects. They also demand a high level of agility from project management teams. Responsible for the entire project cycle, the Project Management will have a direct impact on the respect of deadlines, the cost and especially the relevance of the tool that will be deployed. The challenges in this regard are numerous:
Inflation of development costs
- Features developed and not used
- Documentation rarely up to date and always expensive to maintain
- Administrative activities with little added value
Efficiency problems of the project team
- Poor collaboration and communication between project actors
- Uncertain motivation and lack of involvement of the teams
Inadequacy of the real needs of the users
- Reduction of the functional scope during the project to meet deadlines
- Delay in the availability of the application
- Discrepancy between the users’ vision and the final result
The risk of project failure
- Initial predictive planning rarely compatible with the reality of the project
- Instability of user needs
- Insufficient project follow-up
- Non-compliant software quality

Novelis is an expert in the management of agile projects with a highly iterative approach:
We can no longer count the good practices that come from agile approaches: the daily meeting, planning poker, test-driven development (TDD), continuous integration, simple architecture, etc.
Agility, but for what results? The experience at Novelis is significant: involved users, reduced time to market and serene development teams due to the fact that success becomes the norm and not the happy exception.
Of course, agility in itself is not an infallible guarantee of success. To run a good agile project, you have to be a good agilist. And that’s where Novelis’ experience comes in. Because there is agility in the books and agility in the field. At Novelis, agile is practical, without ever betraying its core values. Our extensive knowledge of agile and related methods (SCRUM, XP, UP, LEAN, KANBAN) allows Novelis teams to propose and adjust the most suitable method to the project environment and to the company organization.
