Projects like @H_O_L_O and @unytco currently place much more confidence in our team as a result of a major workflow change we made back in January. During that time, our development group transitioned away from kanban project management in favor of running traditional two-week sprints. This strategic shift was designed specifically to improve overall clarity and minimize surprises.
The new approach has proven to be incredibly successful. Because we now apply strictly disciplined scopes to every single sprint and have gathered an abundance of velocity data, our ability to accurately predict completion times has vastly improved.
