In our previous article, we shared step 1 of the Modified Agile for Hardware Development (MAHD) Framework. The first step focused on the product manager, Lynda, writing an Agile Product Brief and user stories to “define” JavaBrew’s next generation smart coffee maker. In this article, Step 2: The Agile Project Kickoff Meeting, the team has gathered to review Lynda’s work and kick off the project.

All good questions that must be resolved to everyone’s, especially management’s satisfaction.
