Assessment of Agile Project Management Challenges in the Philippine Telecommunications Industry
Abstract
Agile Project Management (APM) has gained traction across many industries, including telecommunications, thanks to its ability to deliver results quickly, adapt to change, and improve teamwork. In the Philippines, however, rolling out Agile practices in telecom companies hasn’t been without its hurdles. This study explores the real-world challenges faced by teams trying to make Agile work in this fast-paced, highly regulated sector. Through a combination of surveys and interviews with project managers, Scrum Masters, and developers, we uncover key issues such as resistance to change, lack of Agile know-how, outdated infrastructure, and organizational structures that don’t always support Agile ways of working. Our findings highlight the importance of adapting Agile methods to fit the local context taking into account company culture, staff readiness, and compliance demands. We offer practical recommendations like focused training, stronger change management, and better leadership support to help teams overcome these challenges. This research sheds light on how Agile can be more effectively used in the Philippine telecom industry and offers guidance for those working to improve project delivery in similar environments.
