19. Why
is
scrum
within
SAP
world
different?
• SAP
won’t
come
as
a
greenfield
– Predefined
industry
soluKons
– Standard
configuraKon
opKons
– Best

/
SAP
accelerators
• Project
team(s)
built
with
specialists
in
stead
of
mulKdisciplinary
teams
• MulKple
product
owners

to
recognize
a
‘scrumbut’
Play
the
game

scrum
with
all
kind
of
tweaks
– Fixed
price

gates
– Planning
all
sprints

sprints
are
3
months”
• A
‘die-­‐hard’
project
manager
playing
scrum
master
• Manage
scrum
as
a
waterfall
– Product
backlog
is
fixed
– Velocity
as
a
goal
