Tradeoffs: Scope, Speed, Quality
Last updated
What is Tradeoffs: Scope, Speed, Quality?
Every project involves tradeoffs between scope (how much is built), speed (how fast it is delivered), and quality (how well it holds up over time). Reducing scope can speed things up without sacrificing quality. Cutting corners on quality can speed things up in the short term but creates problems later. FDEs need to understand and communicate these tradeoffs clearly, helping customers make informed decisions rather than just agreeing to everything and delivering less than expected.
