Project started from analysis and screening interviews with all key roles. After the first phase client has got the detailed report of pain points and roles separation recommendations. After agreement of the recommendations with the strategic goals and costs the implementation plan was developed. Our PM specialist started to implement the processes. On the next phase, after the first valuable results and assuring that the roles separation is working as it meant to work, we’ve made the profiling of the Project Manager, according to the developed process triggers and selected practices. Based on the profile we have made the PM recruitment. The same time the SCRUM process was already setup and we added mentoring of the newly added PM. Based on the agreed goals, there is a plan for PM to polish SCRUM and supporting processes in the company. Additionally, 2 specialists from QA and development teams are preparing by us to play the role of Scrum Masters.
