Sprintgeoriënteerd

Sprintgeoriënteerd describes an approach or methodology that emphasizes short, iterative cycles of work, commonly known as sprints. This concept is particularly prevalent in agile software development, where projects are broken down into small, manageable pieces that are completed within a defined timeframe, typically one to four weeks. The primary goal of a sprintgeoriënteerd approach is to deliver value incrementally and frequently, allowing for continuous feedback and adaptation.

During each sprint, a cross-functional team focuses on a specific set of tasks or features. The process usually involves planning at the beginning of the sprint, daily stand-up meetings to track progress and identify impediments, and a review or demo at the end of the sprint to showcase completed work. A retrospective meeting follows, where the team reflects on the sprint and identifies areas for improvement in the next cycle. This cyclical nature allows for flexibility, enabling teams to respond to changing requirements or market conditions more effectively than traditional linear development models. The emphasis is on producing working increments of a product regularly rather than waiting for the entire project to be finished.
