RIIS, LLC, an IT consulting firm specializing in application development, today announced that the winning design of the Agile and Beyond Conference iPhone application is now available on the iTunes App Center. The conference, to be held in Dearborn on Saturday March 12, brings together technology professionals interested in the Agile development process. More information on the conference can be found at www.agileandbeyond.org
As a sponsor of the event, RIIS is coordinating the collaborative development of an iPhone application. Participants were invited to collaborate and provide feedback through the use of visualization tools from iRise®. iRise is the world’s leading provider of enterprise visualization software for business applications. The winning entrant was Dion Sullivan from Ford Motor Company who received a new iPad.
"We're pleased to sponsor Agile and Beyond this year," said Godfrey Nolan, president of RIIS. "It's always a great opportunity for Agile enthusiasts to get together and adding the competition is a great way to experiment with high-fidelity visualization in the Agile space."
Used during application development, visualization tools provide an effective way for a large number of stakeholders to participate and collaborate in the task.
"Visualization has become a critical competitive advantage for businesses," said Nolan. "You can more effectively communicate needs to technology teams and give everyone the ability to interact with and fully experience applications before they are built."
Nolan will be talking about the process during the 'Providing Lean Leadership' session at the conference. For more information see here
