Job RequirementsWithin the Business unit Agriculture, Food and Retail (BUA) of Info Support, we launched the BUA Council of Excellence last year. The BUA Council of Excellence is a bi-weekly meeting where sprint results (including progress and quality) are presented by the scrum master/teamlead by using sprint reports. However, the results can differ considerably within the teams and across the teams. The reason for the difference in sprint results is not always that obvious or easy to indicate.
The aim is to analyze the differences in results within the teams and across the teams based on the sprint reports. And investigate which factors contribute to the differences in these results, such as capacity, seniority of the team, design of the work process, certifications, etc. The goal is to finally obtain guidelines, (or tips and tricks) for improving the various result areas.Salary and BenefitsAbout Info Support Research Center
