Answer:
Team 1:
Evolving Requirements:
Sometimes, clients change requirements mid-sprint. We address this by maintaining close communication, re-estimating work when needed, and adjusting priorities in real-time.
Unclear Expectations:
If the client’s vision for a feature isn’t fully crystallized, we schedule clarification calls or workshops to refine requirements.
Technical Constraints:
Legacy systems or strict compliance environments can slow down progress. We manage this by planning more thorough testing and ensuring that architectural decisions consider these constraints early on.
Communication Gaps:
Working with international or cross-functional teams can introduce misunderstandings. Regular syncs, written summaries, and an open-door policy for questions help mitigate these issues.
Team 2:
Unclear requirements on the ticket or additional requirements after the ticket has been done.
Lack of documentation and knowledge transfer from a client.
We handle this by asking on scrum calls or using Jira comments.
