The importance of SCRUM reports cannot be under estimated. In agile methodology, the main role of
the project manager is to facilitate team empowerment and remove all the impediments to project
progress. A project manager (usually the SCRUM Lead) uses the SCRUM reports to highlight the issues
and accomplishments to the wider audience

At JamBuster Technologies, we understand the importance of SCRUM meetings and SCRUM reports in
an agile environment. GWD SCRUM Report has been tailored keeping in mind the needs of various
stakeholders in the project. Not only is the information tailored but also pushed to all the relevant
stakeholders (subscribers) everyday
everyday.. So, managers do not have to run from pillar to post to get the right
information.

GWD SCRUM Reports prominently highlight the following aspects of the project.

At an individual (team member) level

level:

• Allocated tasks for the previous day and the progress achieved

At the team level:

• SCRUM Leads assessment of the project progress

• Actual delivery progress as against planned delivery
• Resource utilization levels

Project Managers and other stake holders can use this information to remove the impediments as well
as smoothly steer the project towards success.

Reports with Happy Faces ☺

SCRUM is foremost about people. They need to feel good about their jobs, their accomplishments and
know that they are visible across the hierarchy. With this in mind we have tweaked the SCRUM reports
to include the happy faces of all the team members. Our custo
customers
mers (especially ones with multi site
operations) are extremely delighted to have this new feature. They are now able to connect to people
(in cases where they have never met in person) in a better way; needless to say that this personal touch
has improved the teamwork at our client sites.
