What's more, in order to deliver optimally, developers of this software development process and project management toolkit has come up with several project management frameworks and methodologies that would help the entire Agile process. One of those methodologies is the Scrum.

We may ask: what is Scrum?

The need for project participants to respond to changes and situations that arise during the project management process is one of the key functional approaches of the Agile process. Scrum represents one of those Agile methodologies that provide such leverage for project handlers and participants to these demanding business requirements.

Scrum is developed to mimic a cooperative rugby strategy which promotes synergy and collaboration among team members even when working at distance. Scrum is technically not a project management framework but a methodology which allows software developers to "inspect and adapt".

It operates as a framework that consists of many other applications that can be used to implement other types of projects. Hence, it is considered as an agile project management tool. Typically, projects are handled either by individuals or a team. Scrum is a methodology that targets team. The focus of a team is important for development that would result in a saleable product even while project is still at full swing. Hence, incremental delivery system, technically called 'Sprint' gives team and project participants to be able to involve everyone in the developmental process.
