Agile Manifesto
Individuals and interactions over Process and tools
Working software over Comprehensive documentation
Customer collaboration over Contract negotiation
Responding to change over Following a plan

Mr. Kenneth Zawodney in statements before Congress*:
How Agile has helped:“..Modernize our IT infrastructure incrementally, employing a cost effective and efficient modular approach to transition away from paper and into the modern era…”
Results:• “…Establishing the capability of gathering electronic data..”• “…In 2012, we launched the Data Viewer…”• “..11 agencies are in a pilot for the Data Viewer..”• “..Continue to deploy the Data Viewer to all agencies within the Federal
government…”
