Question
The government of any country is usually very slow in making and passing new laws and changes. There is a lot of paperwork, voting, debating, and other things that need to happen. As you might imagine, government legislatures use a traditional waterfall approach.
Does this mean that government legislatures will always be constrained to the waterfall approach?
Choose one position below and justify your answer with information from articles, history, etc. In your answer, clearly state which position you are choosing. Address all points in the listed position.
Position A: “I believe government legislatures will always be constrained to a waterfall approach.” Describe why an agile process would not be possible in government legislatures—give an example, if possible. Describe why you feel government legislatures will always be constrained to a lengthy waterfall-style process.
Position B: “I believe government legislatures can switch to an agile process.” Describe the changes needed to switch to agile (you can use your home country’s government as an example). Describe the potential benefits or outcomes of switching to an agile process.
