One of Our Best Practices – Agility RPM
Something we hear a lot of our new customers say is that they did not know that there was a way of working that would generate such a high level of results as quickly as with Agility RPM. They also recognize that this requires more discipline on their side, but in the end, the result pays off. After all, we designed an entire work process and communications between business areas, marketing, IT, and other suppliers with Agility RPM. Often, this helps to restore the channel of communication between business and IT, or put other suppliers “inline”, delivering more value for the money invested in them.
