Many app and software development agencies are adopting the Agile philosophy. The “Agile” approach allows multiple small, cross-functional teams to work in tandem and iteratively and incrementally deliver a product. Such collaboration across internal and external divisions allows teams to easily adapt to changing conditions and deliver at speed.

As businesses are forced to change the way they operate due to the global lockdowns, adopting a Distributed Agile approach can be one way to mitigate the impact of COVID-19 and keep their operations running smoothly. Focusing on remaining responsive to changing client demands and
empowering employees to be productive as they work remotely is the new priority in the business world.

This is where the ‘Agile Anywhere’ approach comes in and promotes productivity beyond any physical borders. Such an approach creates greater skill availability due to accessibility from any location. With social distancing and quarantine restrictions, team members can avoid travel in cities that are locked down.

Organizations that make agility their priority give more control and flexibility to their workers who can work when they’re most productive without being restricted by a 9-to-5 schedule. Furthermore, they benefit from a better work/life balance, leading to greater employee happiness.

The ‘Agile Anywhere’ model leverages technology and systems to do common, repetitive tasks and reduces the dependency on people to streamline and improve process execution. It helps to create self-organized, empowered teams and improve cycle times by enabling them to take decisions without
waiting for directions / approvals.

Finally, increasing productivity through faster turnaround time and less time spent on wasteful activities. It is a foolproof solution to bridge the gaps that physical separation has created and overcome breakdowns if the infrastructure and network bandwidth among the team aren’t present.

By following an ‘Agile Anywhere’ strategy, you are giving your team the tools to survive and thrive in the changing business environment. Now, more than ever, it is critical for organizations to remain viable and prepare themselves for an uncertain future and learning to be agile is the first step to achieve this.
