CAMS makes use of the best principles and practices of Agile together with the necessary practices of formal methods (e.g. PMBOK) at various levels within the organization. These levels or tiers of application of CAMS can range from software development, standard project management, business processes, governance, and business strategies. This wide ranging applicability of Agile elevates it from the cellars of software development and into the business space - where it appears to provide substantially more value.
