The agile approach is gaining increasing importance in project management. The collaborative and adaptive nature of agile methodologies can help reduce the overhead of development, including documentation, upfront planning, and controls on development. It focuses on frequent delivery of working software, featuring a continuous interaction with customers, and paying great attention to the human factor in a project environment. It is able to produce business value early in the project lifecycle and is more responsive in dealing with changing user requirements than the traditional methods of project management.
