Agile Transformation

As the automotive, medical device, aerospace/defense and transportation industries undergo radical transformation, electronics companies involved in the critical systems of these industry sectors must be able to rapidly adjust their teams, projects and businesses to respond to market demands for safer, more complex products to remain competitive.

Agile organizations

Agility refers to an organization’s ability to adapt quickly to changing requirements, such as new customer requirements or changes in market conditions. Being an agile organization requires self-organization, leveraging small teams that can manage themselves while effectively collaborating across the organization. These teams keep in close contact with customers to make it possible to react quickly to customer expectations. This closeness to the market allows a business unit to become more customer-centric and thus more quickly understand what is expected of them. This also lays the foundation for becoming a learning organization.

Companies involved in automotive, medical device, aerospace/defense and transportation electronics must master the development of complex products while also considering:

• Industry standards, including Automotive SPICE® and functional safety.
• Cybersecurity requirements.
• Market conditions.
• Changing technology.

Starting your agile transformation journey

Organizations choose to adopt an agile model to establish customer-focused product development, more flexible development processes, more effective collaboration at all levels, and enhanced innovation capabilities. However, because agile frameworks do not describe regulatory processes, companies may face particular challenges integrating such processes.
