Increase speed, improve visibility and better manage change with our transformative Agile services.
Unlocking the power of Agile principles is about so much more than implementing a software development methodology; it requires a cultural shift across teams and organisations. As practitioners of Agile software development ourselves, at Box UK we’re ideally placed to support you in making this shift – helping transform your organisation into one that innovates, leads, adapts and delivers, successfully and consistently.
Drawing on a range of expert Agile services, we’ll put together a tailored programme of activity to support you in your journey, whether you already have elements of the Agile framework in place or are looking to carry out a complete business overhaul.
Our dedicated consultants will guide your transition to Agile by highlighting current strengths in your setup that you can build upon, as well as areas to improve, while our Agile coaching programmes ensure that your team has the knowledge and skills they need to address real-world challenges and achieve real-world ambitions. We also offer Agile training providing an introduction to the approach and its benefits, as well as courses focusing on specific elements of the framework depending on your unique situation and needs.

Transform your organisation
Whether you already use elements of Agile project methodologies and are looking to strengthen your skills, or have come to the approach to support your wider digital transformation strategy objectives, our consultants will begin by assessing your current setup. This allows us to understand what changes need to be made to ensure you get the most out of the approach – looking at the critically important cultural considerations as well as issues surrounding process, team formation and organisational structure.
Any insights we uncover are fed into clearly documented plans that will put you on the path to Agile victory. We know that one size doesn’t fit all, so your transformation plan will be unique to you – combining elements from disparate methodologies and supported with collaborative workshops and mentoring sessions from our Agile consultants.

Agile coaching services
While Agile has been popularised through software development, its project management principles are relevant and effective across a whole range of industries and departments, and can prove particularly valuable in supporting an organisation’s digital transformation strategy.
Our Agile coaching consultants design and deliver transformative programme to provide you and your team with the knowledge and skills needed not just to do Agile, but to be Agile – responsive, flexible and nimble yet constantly focused on the goal in hand.
With our team of expert Agile coaches, we specialise in bespoke and consultative Agile coaching services – where we’ll work with you to define a programme of activity based on your specific context and pain points; for example development in Scrum, Agile reporting, enterprise Agile coaching, remote working and Agile, or what happens in a Sprint.
Whatever your particular needs however, our Agile coaching consultants will give you an understanding of the core principles and practices associated with the Agile framework, and a roadmap for implementing these within your specific environment.
You’ll also walk away from Agile coaching having understood:
- Roles and responsibilities in an Agile team
- The importance of prioritisation, and methods to achieve this
- Methods for Agile planning, scoping and estimation
- The delivery structure in Agile projects
- The critical importance of iteration, collaboration and feedback – and how these principles help deliver better projects and products
As well as tailored Agile coaching services, we also offer Agile training courses, taking place on a one-to-one basis or for groups of up to 12 people. During these sessions we’ll share with your team key Agile principles, highlighting the approach’s features and benefits. And since theory can only get you so far, we also fill the session full of practical Agile tips that you can put into practice as soon as the course is finished.
Your Agile training course may cover:
- Introduction to Agile
- Introductory requirements gathering
- User stories and acceptance criteria
- User story mapping
- How to run retrospectives
- Introduction to Kanban
- Sprint reviews and user acceptance testing
- Agile business analysis
