Modified Agile for Electronics Development Electronics development has never been more complex—or more critical. Traditional waterfall methods often slow teams down with long cycles, costly redesigns, and missed deadlines. While software teams have thrived with agile, hardware development requires a different approach. This white paper introduces the Modified Agile for Hardware Development (MAHD) Framework™, designed specifically for electronics teams. By adapting agile principles to hardware’s unique challenges, MAHD enables faster timelines, reduced risk, and higher-value solutions. If your organization struggles with shifting requirements, late-stage changes, or cross-disciplinary silos, this guide provides a smarter way forward.   Why Download This White Paper?   Understand why traditional methods fall short and how hardware-specific agile solves the challenges waterfall and “faux agile” can’t. Get a clear introduction to the MAHD Framework™, a proven model that accelerates development by 25–50% while reducing costly risk. Learn practical strategies and tools—from system-level user stories and tailored prototyping to Altium’s solutions for agile electronics success.   What You’ll Take Away:   A framework purpose-built for hardware and electronics – not a software agile retrofit Practical methods to reduce wated effort, improve predictability, and accelerate time-to-market Real-world examples of how electronics teams can align strategy, execution, and customer…
