The Agile framework primarily addresses friction in the delivery and implementation phases of projects. It improves execution speed, quality, and responsiveness to customer needs by emphasizing iterative development and stakeholder feedback.

The Agile Framework is a popular approach in project management used primarily in software development but applicable to other industries as well. It focuses on delivering work in small, manageable increments, known as sprints, and emphasizes collaboration, continual planning, and learning. The framework allows teams to adapt to changes quickly and efficiently, thereby increasing productivity and reducing time to market.
