Deliver Digital Products at Scale

Deliver value at the scale of your organization through defining enterprise product families.

Book This Workshop

As you are continuing your product transition, you may run into challenges:

  • Your stakeholders do not understand the importance of product delivery and the rigor required to go along with it.
  • Even in cases where you have viable product practices for a single product, this quickly falls apart and fails to scale when applying the same practices to a second product and beyond.
  • Organizations expect you to do more with less and are unsympathetic to your team not having a clear understanding of how to scale your product delivery practices.

Delivering digital products at scale has the following impacts:

  • You're able to communicate and manage the commitments for many products en masse, which helps you think strategically instead of being caught up in tactical details.
  • You have a well-defined list of product families with the flexibility to add and remove products to them without having a dramatic and linear impact on your organization’s ability to communicate and plan.
