Abstract
One of the duties of the Aeronautics Computing Center of São José dos Campos, Organization of the Brazilian Air Force, is to develop and operate Information Technology projects and applications assigned to it. As a Military Organization, this Center is constitutionally organized based on hierarchy and discipline. For the management of their projects, the software developers of this Military Organization decided to use Scrum and its good practices. However, the use of an agile framework implies in the horizontal interaction between the members of a team, without any hierarchy between them. At first, the use of Agile Methods in the military was opposed to the hierarchy, reflecting in the relationship between people and the quality of the product. This work aims to present the resources used for a healthy application of Agile Methods in an environment strongly based on the hierarchy between people, improving not only the relationship between them, but also the quality of the products they develop.
