Best Practice in Agile Contracting
DLA Piper offers a free on-demand webinar discussing the relative merits of various contract forms and approaches and discusses what the firm considers to represent best practice in agile contracting.
The firm says on its website that evidence of robust contracting around agile software development projects is still relatively thin on the ground. There are some examples of template contracts, particularly in Scandinavia (Danish K03 and similar examples in Norway and Sweden), but these are as yet little known and little used.
There are also developing hybrid contract forms which mix elements of traditional waterfall with agile contracting to try to balance agility with risk control and certainty, the firm says on its website.
