Artefacts | Impediments

Some of our big impediments were

• No automated versioning

• No automated change history

• More than one Backlog (reunite effort)

• No proper Requirement Engineering & Management

• No proper Release- & Sprintplanning

• Problems to get automated metrics like Burndown& Velocity

� No appropriate transparency, traceability and

too much slack
