Support for Agile Development

Accept, the first integrated Innovation Management Solution, includes native support for Agile development methodologies, such as Scrum, Feature-Driven Development, Rational Unified Process, Extreme Programming, and more.

If your organization is already practicing Agile techniques, you can use Accept to augment Agile’s speed and quality benefits. If you’re still evaluating the shift to Agile, you may find that Accept not only can help ease your transition, but also shorten your time to benefit.

Robust Agile Support

Accept helps organizations better manage their Agile processes, by supporting:

• Iterations/sprints
• Stack-ranked backlogs
• Decomposing requirements into work items
• User stories
• And more

Accept is requirements-centric – not document-centric – and dovetails with Agile’s de-emphasis on formal documentation. Accept provides a centralized repository of artifacts that streamlines communication and eliminates redundant requests. Development managers can break one large group into multiple small ones, easily track and manage each group’s progress, and ensure strategic alignment.
