I’ve spent the last three years adopting Agile / Scrum to hardware. Agile’s promise of twice the work in half the time can be achieved. But, the version of Agile I evolved to required thinking beyond the limited precepts of the Agile Manifesto. Creating an effective Agile framework and ways of working for Hardware Development and Management also took three years, four company reorganizations, and a lot of pain. If you develop hardware, or run a hardware-based business, I hope these posts are helpful to you.
