Framework

Can we reduce scope to fit the timeline?

Which features are truly MVP vs nice-to-have?

Core features: 3 weeks (40% of dev capacity)

Secondary features: 5 weeks (can defer 2 weeks)

Can QA cycle be compressed?

Staged rollout reduces QA from 3 weeks to 2 weeks

Can we parallelize dependencies?

What is the critical path?

Design → Dev → Manufacturing → QA → Launch (16 weeks)

Marketing can start week 8 (overlap saves 2 weeks)

What is blocking manufacturing?

Tooling design: 4 weeks (bottleneck)

How do we mitigate launch risks?

Can we accept higher quality risk?

Soft launch to 10% of users reduces QA burden by 30%

What are contingency buffers?

Dev buffer: 2 weeks (typical overrun is 20%)

Manufacturing buffer: 1 week (supplier risk)
