How does it actually work?

Backlog grooming – dependencies are identified

UX backlog is developed, sized, and planned

Working sessions with Product Owners

Internal reviews for collaboration

Demos with Scrum teams

“Finished” UX work items help to drive work,

collaboration, and identify gaps


Sprint 0 and project kick-off

Runway is a bit longer – not just in time

Infrastructure and backend work

High level documentation

Drive the vision

Business case

Determine priority of features/epics

Larger releases follow same principles


Inspect and Adapt

Retrospectives with Scrum teams and UX

Make necessary modifications

Team interaction

Meetings and demos

Timing of feature delivery

Definition of Ready & Definition of Done

It’s not one size fits all
