Case Study: Lendlease achieves a smoother move from Waterfall to Agile with Planit

How Lendlease changed from Waterfall to Agile delivery with the help of an improvement roadmap that evolved its SDLC processes

Lendlease, a global property and construction group, faced challenges with its traditional Waterfall delivery method, which resulted in severe production defects, frustrated stakeholders, and an inability to adapt to late changes. They engaged Planit to help transform their software delivery lifecycle from Waterfall to Agile, specifically utilizing Planit’s Agile Test Process Improvement review and toolkit to assess their maturity and create a targeted improvement roadmap.

Planit conducted a detailed assessment, interviewing key stakeholders and reviewing processes to build a comprehensive improvement program. The solution included tailored Agile testing templates, a Testing Centre-of-Excellence, and targeted training. As a result, Lendlease gained a clear, actionable roadmap for Agile adoption, leading to Planit being engaged to provide ongoing test process consultancy and testing services across all their projects.
