EPM Live Announces Release of Agile WorkEngine for Product Development

CARLSBAD, Calif., June 15 /PRNewswire/ -- EPM Live, a global leader in SharePoint-based Project and Work Management Applications, announced today its release of Agile WorkEngine for Product Development, built on the SharePoint platform.

EPM Live has extended its WorkEngine SharePoint Project and Work Management Application portfolio by adding Agile for Software and Product Development to its offerings. As an industry leader and a long time implementer of project and work management solutions, EPM Live combines its many years of field consulting expertise with its innovative product development approach to bring powerful SharePoint solutions to market.  

Agile development supports a disciplined project management process that promotes frequent product review and acceptance, individual resource accountability, high quality deliverables with reduced time to market, a teamwork driven environment and a business approach methodology that ensures development alignment with customer satisfaction.  It is an iterative approach to software development that if done correctly can produce a high quality product efficiently and affordably. 

The Agile WorkEngine Application supports the most common Agile SCRUM methodology and can be configured or customized to align with other company-specific iterative methodologies as well. EPM Live's SharePoint Agile WorkEngine Application provides support for all common SCRUM processes including product planning, backlog management, release management, iteration management, iteration tracking, and test case management.  While the EPM Live Agile Application provides "out-of-box" support for the most common terminology and SCRUM processes, it can also be easily configured to support additional iterative cycles such as Sprints, Epic Stories, and Themes.  

The EPM Live Agile WorkEngine Application provides an Agile Planner which provides drag-and-drop capabilities for moving backlog items into specific iterations, moving items between iterations, and for decomposing user stories and defects into tasks and subtasks.  The WorkEngine Agile Planner provides dynamic rollups of Story Points and Work Estimates compared to Point and Work Capacity Values, so that over-allocations can be viewed and addressed immediately. 

EPM Live's SharePoint Agile Product and Software Development application will aid in higher quality products with reduced time to market and will ensure that customer product goals and needs are being met.  EPM Live will continue to bring full solution SharePoint applications to market to help organizations build a powerful and robust SharePoint Project and Work management platform.
