This paper examines the applicability of agile practice in the Collaboratively- -Developed Enterprise Resource Planning (CD-ERP) Model. This model has been proposed as a solution to develop Information Systems (ISs) for public universities in Libyan Higher Education (LHE) following the community-source paradigm and based on ERP. The study took place between 2016 and 2020. The purpose of the article is to discuss the possible impact and success of implementing agile practice in such an environment, while a hybrid approach involving agile practice and a predictive method was introduced. The risks and challenges associated with adopting the CD-ERP model are discussed using a SWOT analysis. Finally, the lessons learnt, recommendations, and directions for future work are presented.

W artykule przeanalizowano możliwość zastosowania zwinnej praktyki (agile practice) w modelu wspólnie opracowanego systemu dla planowania zasobów przedsiębiorstwa (CD-ERP). Model ten został zaproponowany jako rozwiązanie służące rozwojowi systemów informatycznych (IS) dla publicznych uczelni w Libii (LHE) zgodnie z paradygmatem społecznościowym i opartym na ERP. Badanie odbyło się w latach 2016-2020. W artykule omówiono możliwy wpływ i sukces wdrożenia zwinnej praktyki w takim środowisku. Opisano podejście hybrydowe obejmujące zwinną praktykę i metodę predykcyjną. Ryzyko i wyzwania związane z przyjęciem modelu CD-ERP omówiono, analizując mocne strony, słabe strony, szanse i zagrożenia (SWOT). Na koniec przedstawiono wyciągnięte wnioski, zalecenia i kierunki przyszłych prac.
