...If you employ a complete off-the-shelf methodology, you will
find that you are burdened with deliverables (and therefore work) that
brings no benefit so is a waste of time, money etc.  

Dan, I cant agree with you there. The business in almost every case has
determined what they require. A methodology is a recipe for success. This
means that it has been tried, and tested to work.
It may not be applicable to every project, but it is far from burdened with
deliverables that are useless.

Kind Regards
