Traditional project management processes, also referred to as waterfall processes, have been used for decades to manage infrastructure projects. Agile project management, first introduced by the software industry, and known for its adaptability, targets projects delivery using an iterative and/or incremental approach, thus improve project delivery time and cost.
This research paper explores how road infrastructure projects, historically reliant on traditional project management processes, can attain benefits using the Agile set of principles and methods. With current challenges, high uncertainties and ever-changing and evolving customer requirements, there needs to be a more adaptive approach to managing and delivering road infrastructure projects to address changes in a timely and effective manner, while fostering collaboration among stakeholders. Agile can address these challenges by utilizing cross-functional teams which rely on retrospectives and continuous feedback from customers to improve team performance and enhance project outcomes and product delivery. The full benefits of Agile can only be exploited if there is a supporting organizational culture and active leadership participation.
