Agile software development process orientation for eliminating errors as non-value-added activities in food and nutrition industries

الملخص EN

The Agile development process in software provided many opportunities for development to meet customer expectations and continuous technological changes.

through this research, it was possible to analyze the visions of software users used in production operations in food factories to identify quality specifications for programs and errors as non-value added activities such as errors and time wasters.

and iterations in order to study how to reduce it.

data were collected for the research through personal interviews with leaders, officials, software programmers, and distributing 400 survey questionnaire forms to employees.

one incomplete survey was excluded to become 399 forms for users of this software in factories.

the participants in the research were selected from software users in the factories under study from a random group of workers in food factories in the sample under study, and the rest of the data were also collected through personal interviews with software programmers who develop software for factories the results of the field study, which took place during the food factories in the sample under study, showed that the development of software used in the operation of production in food factories using the agile development method, ensured the modification of software functions to ensure the prevention or at least the reduction of non-value-added activities.

the sample were divided according to the classifications of the food industry and it was found that the increased added value as well as reducing the risks resulting from the use of such software in the operations of production in those factories were established.
