Path's Project Methodologies
During the past decade, the project management landscape has changed dramatically, as increasing discipline in methodology, monitoring and reporting demand more of project managers in the defense and civilian sectors, alike. Path's project managers have met this challenge, becoming leaders in project management their own right, mastering a variety of methodologies, including:
- PMI's Project Management Body of Knowledge®: As certified Project Management Professionals, Path project managers apply the proven processes and disciplines within the PMBOK to consistently deliver projects on time and on budget.
- Agile Methodologies: With dramatic change now the norm in government and the private sector, software development projects need the flexibility and adaptability that Agile methodologies provide, from the responsiveness of Scrum to the user-centric approach of XP. As Agile leadership, many Path project managers are Certified Scrum Masters (CSM) adept at leading Agile development teams through multiple Sprints until your project is successfully delivered.
- RUP: Since its creation in the 1990's, the Rational Unified Process has provided the optimal combination of flexibility and discipline by marrying the strong planning of Waterfall methodologies with the agility of iterative software development. As RUP certified professionals, Path Technologies project managers have pioneered the use of RUP in government agencies, leading small projects and large through the complete RUP life cycle.
- Traditional/Waterfall Methodology: Traditional methodologies provide the benefits of stability and longevity in many organizations throughout the government and private sector. In addition to Agile and RUP, Path Technologies project managers lead projects using these more traditional waterfall methodologies for our defense and civilian clients, understanding the strengths of waterfall approaches while minimizing their weaknesses.
