My presentation at Scrum Day 2019, Stuttgart Germany. Abstract: "In this talk, I'll show you how to Scrum the development of a Hardware product, composed by Software, Hardware, Mechanical parts and Plastics using the engineering practices known as eXtreme Manufacturing, invented by Joe Justice in the Wikispeed project. Additionally, there is an example on how to use the Scrum@Scale scaling patterns to scale up the development to multiple Scrum Teams and many external suppliers." https://www.scrum-day.de/vortraege/details/vortrag-2019-scrumscale-with-hardware.html#details

Charter and Scrum@Scale. The book is
divided in two parts: the first one made of
stories which introduce the topic in an easy
way, the second one include the description of
the method, the underling values and
principles, the engineering practices, case
studies and many practical examples on how
to adopt it in your company. In the Appendix
you'll find the Scrum and Scrum@Scale guides
and the description of Cynefin and

39. TO
Home & Building automation

40. • To be able to develop complex functions following the
need of the market which continuously changes.
• To increase the motivation of the developers which see in
short time the results of their job.
• To attract the best engineers providing a modern and up to
date job environment where their skills and professionality
can grow.
Why Agile and Scrum?

41. Implementation

42. Every project start with at least two
day of LiftOff, with the whole team,
the key stakeholders and some
managers, where we share the Vision,
the requirements, the constraints and
we create the first backlog with the
User Story Mapping technique,
covering Software and Hardware layers.
Whole team alignment

43. Daily Meetings and Scaled Daily
• From 8.30 to 9.00 all the
teams have their individual
Daily Meeting.
• At 9.00 a representatives
from all the teams, also
the remotes and suppliers,
join the Scrum of Scrum.
• Scrum of Scrums have a
senior manager serving as
the Scrum of Scrums
Master, in charge of
systemic impediments.

44. Organizational Structure (example)

CPO Chief Product Owner
SSM Scrum of Scrums Master
PO Product Owner

45. • We behave like a real buffet: you can't take
too little, because it would not be polite, but
you can't take too much because you have
to eat whatever you take.
• Very energetic meeting where discussions
took place spontaneously; a managed
chaos.
• It takes around one hour of discussions for
Sprint Planning 1 (what to do). At the end
of the hour every team shares with the
others what they selected and the CPO
checks the table to see if there are high
priority items still there. In that (very rare)
case, teams are asked to volunteer to
replace something they have with the
remaining high priority item.
Buffet Planning

46. Deployment / Review
• Teams have dedicated rooms
where integrate and test, very
often during the Sprint, the
products.
• These rooms usually are used also
for the Sprint Review, so they all
have projectors and foldable chairs
to accomodate guests.
• The different products are installed
in several movable panels. They
can also be taken into the team
room during the Sprint for
convenience.

effectiveness.

49. Point of attention

management is necessary.
•Impediments must be promptly corrected.
