Summary:

Agile is an approach to software development in which software is developed incrementally and is continuously evaluated for functionality, quality, and customer satisfaction. Agile can reduce the risks of funding a program that fails or produces outdated technology.

The federal government is planning to spend at least $90 billion on major IT investments in FY 2021. It has struggled in this area.
