Agile @ Altitude - Tony Richards

About the Session
This is a story of a large physical engineering company that transitioned from traditional project delivery practices to Agile whilst maintaining safety and increasing the reliability of the equipment in their care. The difference was that their equipment was located in the ocean hundreds of miles from land.
In this story, you will discover how the team and organisation visualised their work on and offshore to reveal what stopped the execution of valuable/expensive engineering work. What they did to create a direct connection between the organisation's strategic objectives and everything delivered in real-time. When the parent organisation decided to introduce multi-disciplinary teams, how these teams pivoted with ease.
