Scoping and Roadmapping
Achieving your objectives on time and on budget
Potential scope comes to our clients from everywhere – customer support, research, competitive analysis, business needs, evolving tech, and compliance and standards, to name a few. We identify, normalize (into epics, features, stories, and/or requirements), estimate, prioritize, and then slot scope into a roadmap of releases. The project’s scope is further elaborated, maintained, and traced across workstreams and activities, from UX design to change management. The backlog and roadmap are continually revised and refreshed, ensuring that what is being worked on most greatly and directly supports the project’s key objectives.
