description The aim of this paper is to reveal, examine and study the most important specifics of the Scrum framework application from a theoretical and practical aspect. The first section explains the basics of the agile approach, i.e. agile values and principles, with the idea of creating a starting point for understanding the Scrum framework and the environment in which it originated. Furthermore, the focus shifts to defining the role, significance and structure of the Scrum framework, with special emphasis on presenting Scrum roles, Scrum events and Scrum artefacts as completely new categories in project management unique to the Scrum framework. Starting with the importance and responsibility of each Scrum team member, followed by the duration, proper sequence and purpose of Scrum events, as well as by the creation, updating and refinement of Scrum artefacts, the Scrum framework is presented to potential users so its application can be better, easier and simpler both within the projects in the IT sector and in other sectors where the application of the Scrum framework is suitable. The results of research on the application of Scrum framework and agile approach within projects regarding the development of new software solutions in the Republic of Serbia are presented at the end of the paper, together with the conclusions concerning the prospects for further development and wider application of the Scrum framework in projects, regardless of their type, complexity, or the field in which they are realised.
