Scrum falls short in at least one area in my opinion

June 5, 2009 by Jack Milunsky

Many of us have come to love Scrum, including me. Scrum has been a huge success overall and has turned many a development team around and for the better. Yet in my opinion, I think Scrum falls short in at least one area.

Concept to Cash

Firstly, It's commonly accepted that Scrum does not consider the whole life-cycle. i.e. it's a great framework for helping development teams tame the development life cycle but it does not tackle all areas from "concept to cash". Lean and Lean with Kanban certainly appears to be an alternative to Scrum or at least coupled with Scrum to provide and all round concept to cash highly effective framework for producing software products.
