Scrum development

Scrum development is a type of agile development, a method of efficiently advancing a project by dividing the project into fixed periods (called sprints), checking the progress of the team through daily Scrum meetings, and making changes flexibly.

In Scrum development, development teams are self-organized, tasks are assigned within the team, and progress is shared in daily Scrum meetings. Team members themselves take responsibility for the project, rather than the project manager or supervisor giving instructions.

In Scrum development, a prioritized task list, called the product backlog, is created and agreed upon by the development team and sponsor before the start of a sprint. During the sprint, the development team selects tasks from the product backlog and completes them by the end of the sprint. At the end of the sprint, the team conducts a sprint review and updates the product backlog for the next sprint.

Scrum development offers the flexibility to respond quickly to changes in the project and to respect the opinions of team members. However, there are some challenges, such as the difficulty of accurate estimates and the fact that team members may feel overburdened. Adequate training and support are needed when implementing Scrum development.

Examples of Scrum Development Applications

Scrum development is used not only in software development but also in various other fields. The following are some examples.

1. IT system development
   Scrum development is widely used in IT system development. For example, a major company has introduced Scrum development for the development of internal systems. The product owner manages the system requirements, and the development team develops the system in an agile manner to achieve highly flexible system development.

2. digital marketing
   Scrum development is also used in digital marketing. For example, Scrum Development is used in website development and email marketing improvement, and results are achieved by repeating small improvements in short sprint periods.

3. education
   Scrum development is also used in the field of education. For example, educational institutions have introduced Scrum Development to create action plans for students to achieve their goals, thereby increasing student autonomy and leading to improved performance.

4. consulting
   Consulting firms sometimes utilize Scrum Development in their projects. For example, we have implemented Scrum Development in organizational improvement projects for client companies to implement improvement plans and quantify improvement results.

As described above, Scrum Development is used in a wide range of fields, not limited to software development.
