Our approach to project delivery is heavily centred around regular, repeated interaction and
communication with our customers. Our Agile methodology builds on foundations
set out within the Microsoft Solution Framework by:
- Working towards a shared project vision with stakeholders
- Investing heavily in quality, with all project team members taking personal responsibility for the quality of their involvement
- Fostering open communications
- Maintaining an Agile approach, adaptable to change
Our Agile approach ensures maximum project management control while maintaining high flexibility
to enable BMN to deliver a collaborative and iterative service to customer projects with shorter delivery
timeframes. Incorporating such techniques into the BMN project process helps to:
- Clearly define, organise and control project scope
- Maintain good communication channels throughout the project team and beyond
- Review project progress regularly against the plan and original Business Case
- Ensure that project stakeholders are engaged at the right time
- Control and manage change
Microsoft Solutions Framework

Framework as the methodology that will govern the way we
deliver our projects because it:

of projects and client requirements

technology projects

project management standards
- Provides excellent integration with our routine
software development tools
- Is based on a defined set of principles, models,
disciplines, concepts and guidelines

- Can be based around processes (formal process
model)
- Helps us deliver successful business-driven
technology solutions to our customers
