Description
This activity takes place at the beginning of the first iteration, when the project starts. The goal of this activity is to establish the vision for the project and the project plan at a high level of granularity. The people in the roles involved at this time collaborate to perform this activity: Visionary, Analyst and stakeholder roles work together to define the vision for the project, capturing the customer needs and features for the system under development. Needs and features are captured to the extent required to reach agreement about the scope of the project. Project manager (with collaboration and agreement of team and stakeholders) proposes a high-level project plan that includes the milestones for the four phases and time-boxed iterations for each phase. This plan and the allocation of staff to the project evolve throughout the phases to reflect the project pace, as necessary.
