Case Study 2: Success with Agile Project Management in General
Dynamics
Due Week 6 and worth 100 points
Read the case study on General Dynamics.
The Combat Identification Server (CIdS) Technology Demonstrator
Project (TDP) has been delivered on time, with quality and budget
parameters using the Dynamic Systems Development Method
(DSDM). CIdS is a complex system and software project. The objective
is to help clear “the fog of war” by providing a picture in the cockpit of
an aircraft of the position of nearby friendly forces on the ground. The
selection of DSDM for the CIdS TDP was motivated by the Tactical
Datalinks Delivery Team’s (TDL DT) objective to demonstrate that
complex military technologies could be delivered without delay or cost
overrun. The use of DSDM was a bold move, but the CIdS project
delivered successful outcomes for all involved. In the current
economic environment, delivering acceptable solutions on time and at
a fixed cost is surely a priority for the Ministry of Defense (MoD). The
success of the CIdS project has provided a good example for the
project management in the defense sector.
