Agile Evolution: BridgeView PMO Expertise Streamlines Aviation Software Release

Key Challenge

A global aviation leader, embracing Agile practices for software development, was experiencing challenges reconciling these methodologies with strict regulatory requirements.

They engaged BridgeView’s PMO expertise to streamline their software release process and ensure proper compliance.
