Abstract

This thesis researched the possible use of agile project management for infrastructure project through the use of a serious research game. The thesis showed that there are different serious games and created a serious research game. By playing the serious research game with agile and traditional project management experts a hypothesis was created to use agile project management in the realisation of infrastructure projects. It showed that by using agile thinking at the start of project conception stakeholders are more seen as design experts. By using a minimal viable design and frequent collaboration and communication with the stakeholders a design is made through iterations. This design is than build.
