Abstract :
Transitioning from one development method to another has become a common routine for many companies. Despite this, very few reports describe how the process transition has been carried out, and provide suggestions for how to define a process transition model. This paper reports on a process transition from Scrum to Scrumban in one software development company. The paper gives an account on the process transition process, changes done to the development process undergoing the transition and the improvements achieved. It rounds up with lessons learned.
