   A product team is working on a new analytics dashboard for a financial services client. The client has a regulatory deadline in 8 weeks. The team has identified 12 features, but can only deliver 5.

   • ABuild the compliance feature first, then use any remaining time to build the highest-value features, even if only 3 are completed.
