T(cid:396)aditio(cid:374)al pm app(cid:396)oa(cid:272)h concentrates on thorough, upfront planning of the entire project. Requires a high degree of predictability to be effective. Agile p(cid:396)oje(cid:272)t ma(cid:374)age(cid:373)e(cid:374)t relies on incremental, iterative development cycles to complete less-predictable projects. Is ideal for exploratory projects in which requirements need to be discovered and new technology tested. Focuses on active collaboration between the project team and customer representatives. Is related to the rolling wave planning and scheduling project methodology: Uses ite(cid:396)atio(cid:374)s (cid:894)(cid:862)ti(cid:373)e (cid:271)o(cid:454)es(cid:863)(cid:895) to de(cid:448)elop a (cid:449)o(cid:396)ka(cid:271)le p(cid:396)odu(cid:272)t that satisfies the (cid:272)usto(cid:373)e(cid:396) and other key stakeholders.
