Start with the work, not the features
Describe the task people need to complete today. Where do they repeat information, wait for approval or lose track of progress? Map one real journey before deciding which screens to build.
Define a useful first release
Choose the smallest release that completes that journey. Separate essential capabilities from later improvements. Agree who approves the scope and how changes will be evaluated.
Make success observable
Set a baseline for the process you are improving. Completion time, error rates and adoption can be more useful than a long feature checklist. Decide how your team will review progress.
Prepare for ownership
Clarify who will maintain the application, manage access and respond to incidents. Include documentation, training and a handover in the delivery discussion—not only the launch date.
