Our Perspective
50% of Any Backlog is Low Value
Most of these requests are “too small to vet” and ended up hiding somewhere in between large strategic projects and operational emergencies.
Appoint a Backlog Curator With a Mandate
Backlogs are mostly managed by technical or business owners. What’s needed is someone with neither technical nor business bias but with a mandate to ensure that value and feasibility are validated.
Avoid a False Sense of Stakeholder Urgency
Requests are often unaware of the alternatives or the broader business picture. Teach stakeholders to avoid self-interests and half-baked ideas.
