> Agile stops working the moment you need to sign any form of contract with anyone, because nobody is going to sign a contract that doesn’t tell them what they are going to get for X amount of money. Its processes are sort of fine on the smaller scale because it breaks project tasks into neat to-do-lists, but it’s utterly useless for actual project management because estimates are a lie and delivering on time is what is required to drive a project successfully.
It's totally normal to do software development contracts with agile processes, and well-understood how to structure them. Estimates also suddenly don't get better just because they're made fixed at the star, and at the same time agile doesn't mean "there is no plan where this is going at all".
