Guidance Notes
Teams and Organisations should have a Roadmap that describes how their Objectives are expected to be delivered within their agreed Budget & Headcount.
This Roadmap should:
- Be agreed in the short to medium term, and then candidate or indicative beyond this.
- Show the Major Change Initiatives that will deliver the Team or Organisation’s Objectives, when they’re expected to start and finish, and their Budget & Headcount profile.
- Be underpinned by evidence gathered from Innovation activities as to how the Major Change Initiatives will deliver the Team or Organisation’s Objectives and what Budget and Headcount / Effort will be required to deliver them.
- Show the sub-Organisations or Teams within the Organisation, their Budget & Headcount profile, and any major future expected events (e.g. changes to lifecycle stages, significant user rollouts).
