Case Study: University of Melbourne Improves Research Team Agility with Svitla Systems

University of Melbourne boosts agile delivery for 20 PhD researchers in 3 months with Svitla Systems

The University of Melbourne's Research Platform Services (ResPlat) department needed to improve project management visibility and accountability for its team of PhD student Research Community Leads. To help them adopt Agile practices and better manage their workflow, the university engaged Svitla Systems for its agile coaching and training expertise.

Svitla Systems implemented a tailored agile solution, establishing a physical Kanban board, regular stand-up meetings, and a feedback loop over a three-month period. This provided the team with the structure to effectively monitor workflow, mitigate risks early, and plan long-term. The solution delivered by Svitla empowered the 20 researchers with professional development and set up the department's new Product Manager for success.
