To rapidly deliver solutions in this flexible environment, many companies have adopted agile software development processes, such as Scrum. But even though Scrum can help to deliver software solutions in a highly dynamic environment with unclear solution requirements, its main focus is not the delivery of radical new innovations.

These principles, amongst others, include an iterative workflow and a flexible process framework. Our hypothesis is that these two meth- odologies are compatible and that the merger of the two into one integrated DT@Scrum ap- proach would result in an agile software development process that could deliver the innova- tive customer-oriented products and services required by competitive companies.
