    Discovery (1–2 weeks)

    Workshops with stakeholders and users, a review of existing systems, and a shared definition of success.

  2. 2

    Architecture (1–2 weeks)

    System design, technology choices, security model and a delivery plan with a fixed estimate for the first release.

  3. 3

    Build (2-week sprints)

    Cross-functional squads ship working software every sprint, with a demo you can click through.

  4. 4

    Verify (Continuous)

    Automated tests, security scans and performance checks run on every change; UAT with your team before release.
