Specifics of the Agile Approach and Methods in Project Management and its Use in Transport

摘要

The most commonly used tool for implementing changes in the enterprise, are projects. The success of projects, whether in the introduction of products, new technologies, or the expansion of production capacity, contributes to increasing the competitiveness of the enterprise. Conversely, the failure of projects can lead to a decline in performance, large financial losses, or even a threat to the existence of the enterprise, especially in the case of large investment projects. Projects using new technologies have to face the fact that this technology will not be able to meet expectations. Highly complex projects face the problem of accurate estimation of time and costs, and even the smallest and simplest projects have a certain element of risk, so it is necessary to find a suitable approach to managing projects with regard to risks in all areas and therefore also in transport. The aim of the article is to point out the possibilities and ways to use an agile approach in project management in transport, including a comparison of selected methods.
