Agile development principles have been shown to work only for small-sized software projects. When software projects, especially those that have a distributed element, are scaled up, agile manifesto-based principles may not lead to agility in development. Further, agile manifesto-based principles do not seem to have strong theoretical support in general. This paper distinguishes “agility principles” from “agile principles” and attempts to provide best practice recommendations that are based on theories popular in Information Systems, and reference-discipline fields.
