(2) Implicit team knowledge is lost when the development team is broken up after delivery,Maintenance
(3) Individual team members may not have suitable personalities for the intense involvement of agile methods,Team/People
(4) Agile methods do not typically create a coherent requirements document, making it hard to assess the impact of proposed changes,Maintenance
