The project in view

Start with
sample order events and customer identifiers.
Proposed result
a customer-safe order timeline.
A decision to resolve
public links exposing private details.

This is a planning example. It does not describe a completed client engagement.

Scope & boundaries for this project

  • Choose devices and the main user task first. Decide whether browser access, offline work or device features are required.
  • Use “a customer-safe order timeline” as the proposed deliverable; confirm what is included in that description.
  • Resolve this boundary early: public links exposing private details.

Questions to answer together

  • Who uses the result, and what decision does it support?
  • Which part of the current process is included?
  • Which exceptions and adjacent tasks are excluded?

What to have at the end

A bounded scope with an owner, an intended result and explicit exclusions.

Record the decision on public links exposing private details alongside the source material. If it is still unresolved, identify who can answer it and what work depends on the answer.
