There is no such thing as an Agile contract.

If a contract starts out as fixed price, fixed scope, fixed time, there is no way to change it.

Governance “just is,” and we must deal with it. It’s not up for discussion.

All governance is defined and decided upon outside the reach of Scrum Teams.

Contracts can be described in ways that promote Agile behavior and agility.

Finance stakeholders are not interested in emerging or changing backlogs. They want a fixed plan that doesn’t change for the next four quarters.

One way to look at the budget is through the perspectives of market and product strategy.
