The elaboration of simulation cases presents uncertainties, mainly before its modeling development starts. As the work advances, it's common to notice requirement changes on simulation projects due to the participants getting more and better understanding about the scope. The application of Agile methodologies, such as Scrum, can improve project management performance on simulation projects by the treatment of uncertainties. The performance improvement comes from the removal of no-value activities and treatment of: (1) activities plan; (2) clearer communication between customer and developers; (3) precise scope agreement; and (4) schedule definition. This paper proposes the usage of Scrum on simulation projects, based on Project Management Body Of Knowledge, Plan-Do-Check-Act cycle and Agile methodology. To validate the proposal, the paper presents a case of a simulation project in an electronics factory.
