MVP Planning & Iterative Delivery

Accelerate time-to-value by defining Minimum Viable Products that test assumptions and deliver early benefit. I help teams scope MVPs that are lean, purposeful, and iterative — avoiding feature bloat and enabling faster learning loops.

When to Employ This Service

Use when launching a new product, feature, or service — especially under time or budget constraints — or when delivery is blocked by unclear priorities, over-engineered scope, or lack of cross-functional alignment.

Outcomes & Benefits

Effective MVP planning supports faster launches, reduced risk, and clearer paths to product-market fit.

•  Early validation of product hypotheses

•  Reduced delivery complexity and cost

•  Better alignment between teams on scope and expectations

•  Stronger feedback loops through faster iteration

•  Increased confidence in what to build next

Approach

I support cross-functional teams to define MVPs rooted in user needs and strategic priorities, ensuring scoping decisions are evidence-led and outcome-focused.

•  Scoping: Define core user needs and value propositions

•  Prioritisation: Use tools like MoSCoW, RICE, and Impact/Effort grids

•  Framing: Align MVP around testable hypotheses and outcomes

•  Delivery: Support agile sprint planning and iteration planning
