This paper discusses our experience attempting to develop and introduce a web‐based collaborative engineering environment into an organization working in a government contract environment. In a previous paper, we described how we had evolved our processes from ones that control change to processes designed to adapt to a rapidly changing environment. In this paper, we continue the story by discussing how those processes compared to “Extreme Programming” (XP), and how we subsequently benefited from adopting additional elements of XP. To illustrate the points, we use our 2002 task to automate the enterprise Data Management process as an example.
