4

Implementation

Execute within sprint or process as separate change request

how we handle changes

Minor Adjustments

Can be absorbed within current sprint commitments

Examples:

UI tweaks
Copy changes
Small bug fixes
Configuration updates
Included in current sprint

Formal Change Request

Requires separate evaluation and client approval

Examples:

New features
Architecture changes
Third-party integrations
Major refactoring
Managed as separate CR

Continuous Sprint Health Checks

We actively monitor sprint velocity, team capacity, and potential blockers to ensure timely delivery. If issues arise, we communicate proactively and work together to find solutions—whether that's rolling over tasks, extending the sprint, or re-prioritizing based on your business needs.
