Competitive Analysis #
Since the creation and inception of Disciplined Agile in 2009, no competitive alternative currently exists for a similar product.
Consumer competition for a similar Disciplined Agile Product is potentially limited to confidential proprietary software with coaching at an organizational level. Current knowledge of a product like this is unknown.
No cost will be associated with the release or use of this product. The Project Management Institute (PMI) has an advantage since it provides industry-standard Disciplined Agile certificates. Therefore, users are more likely to use this product since it originates with PMI.
This product fills a gap, allowing the user—specifically a student—to utilize a digital version of these process goals and options. The user must use the static text in the “Choose Your WoW” book as an alternative.
High-Level Capabilities #
The DA Browser must contain the following capabilities:
- A complete list of process goals and each of the options.
- Additional information for each process goal links the user to the PMI website information.
- Other resources for the goal options within those process goals allow the user to read more.
- Export as an image option for the process goals.
- Users can search for keywords.
Metrics Strategy #
Manual metrics are used to measure success, captured through human intervention—precisely, a survey asking the user about their experience with the product.
This method reasonably fits qualitative measures and provides a historical view for each iteration, which is ideal for this no-cost product.
