Why Choose the Planning Package? |
The Planning package is designed to provide the tools you will need to accomplish your planning efforts
in the Agile Envision and Speculate phases. Organizations which have automated tools including a
Sprint Backlog Status, Sprint Burn-up Chart or Sprint Burndown Chart will use this package to
plan and setup the environment for your projects.
|
However, if you do not have automated tools, you will want to purchase our Status Package,
which includes all of these planning artifacts plus tools such as the Sprint Burn-up Chart supporting
the Speculate, Explore and Adapt phases.
|
The Planning Package provides you with the following customizable tools to achieve step-by-step Agile documentation:
|
|
Envision Phase
|
|
Initiate the project by developing a Project Charter. | |
Create a Vision Statement to clearly communicate that vision to the project team. | |
Complete a Risk Management Register identifying potential risks and the plan to mitigate those risks. | |
Develop a Project Data Sheet, which is a single summary of key business and quality objectives, product capabilities, and more, defining how the project team will deliver on the Vision Statement. | |
Speculate Phase
|
|
Choose between an Excel or Visio version of a Theme / Epic Structure that will provide a hierarchy of themes, epics and user stories. | |
Offer a Planning Poker Companion to the project team to capture the various votes the team makes in determining story points for each user story. | |
Capture the story points that have allocated to each user story by sprint in the Story Points Allocation artifact. | |
Prepare a Release Plan defining what features and user stories are included in the release. | |
Verify that all stories have been completed in each sprint using the guidance incorporated in the Story Completion Checklist. |
