Product, technical and business decisions remain connected throughout the work.

    Each phase reduces a different uncertainty, so progress is measured by what the team can decide next, not by activity alone.

    Combine product strategy, design and engineering in the smallest complete system that can test the core proposition.

    Evidence and learning

    Validate

    Put the product in front of the intended users or operating environment and record what the evidence supports.

    Operations and market

    Scale

    Strengthen delivery, operations and partnerships only after real use supports the direction.
