Map agile practices to reference models and regulatory requirements
Connect agile delivery practices to the standards and obligations the organization needs to satisfy.
Lean-Agile Quality Management
Make quality management work with the transformation — not around it.
Integrate quality assurance, assessments, process engineering, governance, and metrics with lean-agile product development while keeping internal and external regulatory alignment intact.

Overview
Quality management has to evolve with the delivery model.
Quality assurance, assessments, process engineering, deployment, governance, and metrics must evolve together with lean-agile product development. If quality management remains based on a separate way of working, it can become an obstacle to flow; if governance is removed indiscriminately, compliance and assurance suffer.
Lean-Agile Quality Management helps integrate quality-management practices with the agile development model while maintaining alignment with internal and external regulatory requirements.
Objective
Create a quality-management approach that supports lean-agile delivery, uses feedback cycles effectively, and keeps regulatory and organizational obligations connected to the way teams work.
Focus areas
Three places the work concentrates.
Challenge documentation and description requirements
Use emergent-design thinking to determine what level of documentation is actually needed for the product lifecycle and assurance context.
Integrate quality into agile feedback cycles
Bring quality-management activities and metrics into the regular feedback cycles of agile product development rather than operating them as a parallel system.

Benefits
- Maintain regulatory alignment while adopting lean-agile ways of working.
- Reduce unnecessary separation between quality management and product development.
- Apply documentation effort more deliberately.
- Use agile feedback cycles to strengthen rather than weaken quality.
- Connect quality metrics more closely with the actual development process.
