The Agile Software Development Agreement is designed for use in the Danish legal context when organizations need to establish a formal contractual relationship for software development using agile methodologies. This document is particularly relevant when traditional fixed-scope contracts are unsuitable due to the evolving nature of software requirements. It balances the flexibility needed for agile development with the legal certainty required under Danish law, incorporating necessary provisions for GDPR compliance, intellectual property protection, and risk allocation. The agreement is structured to support sprint-based development, continuous delivery, and collaborative working methods while ensuring clear accountability and compliance with Danish legal requirements. It includes comprehensive provisions for change management, quality assurance, and dispute resolution, making it suitable for both simple and complex software development projects.
