1. Understand Requirements and Define the MVP: Thoroughly grasp the business needs to identify the Minimum Viable Product (MVP), ensuring essential features are prioritized for a quicker launch and a solid foundation for future enhancements.
2. Review Requirements for Clarity: Regularly review and clarify requirements with stakeholders to avoid misinterpretations and costly revisions, keeping the project on track.
3. Re-evaluate Requirements and Manage Change: Continuously adapt to evolving requirements through effective change management, maintaining alignment with project goals and ensuring open communication.
