Adapting Scrum Process with 7C Knowledge Management Model

Today, Agile software development is one of the main approaches of software development. In this area adherence to the Agile principles and values has led to the removal of comprehensive documentation in the development process. This has replaced the explicit knowledge with implicit knowledge. In fact, the foundation of Agile software development is based on implicit knowledge. This has led knowledge management in the Agile software development as a challenging point. However, the nature of implicit knowledge is such that it can be used beneficially with optimal management. Considering this challenge, this study attempts to adapt the Scrum framework as the most popular Agile method with 7C model as one of the well-known implicit knowledge management models. The results of this study showed that this model would be successful in Scrum framework.
