Agile methodologies are based on core values and principles that help teams achieve more effective and efficient project management.

Customer Collaboration over Contract Negotiation

Agile focuses on working with customers, not just following what is written in a contract. Instead of fixing all requirements at the start, teams stay in constant contact with the customer and adjust based on real feedback. This creates:

  • clearer expectations;
  • faster corrections;
  • higher customer satisfaction.

Responding to Change over Following a Plan

Agile treats change as a normal part of development. Instead of strictly following a fixed plan, it allows requirements to evolve. By responding to change, teams stay flexible, adapt quickly, and keep the product aligned with real customer needs.

Individuals and Interactions over Processes and Tools

Agile values individuals and interactions over processes and tools. This means prioritizing direct communication and collaboration among team members. While processes and tools are important, they should not hinder effective teamwork. Agile promotes a culture where team members work closely together, share ideas, and solve problems collaboratively. By fostering strong interpersonal relationships and open communication, Agile teams can respond more effectively to challenges and deliver higher-quality outcomes.

Working Software over Comprehensive Documentation

In Agile, working software is valued more than heavy documentation. Progress is measured by the delivery of functional software that brings real value to the customer. Documentation is still important, but it should never slow the team down. Agile teams focus on just enough documentation to:

  • support development and onboarding;
  • explain key decisions and system behavior;
  • help with maintenance and future updates;
  • avoid wasting time on documents that are never used;

This allows teams to spend more time building, testing, and delivering usable software.

The goal is not to eliminate documentation, but to keep it practical, useful, and aligned with the needs of the team and the product.
