Overview

This is where the magic happens. With the engineering team functioning autonomously, product and design are free to do their jobs well — rather than managing the same old fires and making small incremental progress.

In this phase, product and design will help define the ideal discovery process and collaborate on templates for useful artifacts. Depending on team needs, this could be a week of brainstorming, or a couple months of actually implementing and iterating this process on with a real project. Timeline will also be impacted by whether dedicated product and design resources are available, or if consultant need to assume tactical duties as well.

Output

Low investment: Discovery process overview, definition of tools and strategies, templates for effective artifacts i.e. product requirements documents, team solutioning framework.

High investment: Above, plus a fully defined first project

Duration
