Agile MBI, MRF, MMR, and MVP

Agile offer the benefits:

Ability to manage the changing priorities.

Increased team productivity through daily task allocation.

Better project visibility due to the simple planning system.

Minimum Business Increment-MBI

• The smallest releasable chunk of value that makes sense from business perspective.
• Focused on the highest value, quick realization of the value.
• Targeted for a particular market segment.
• Only artifact for which cost-of-delay make sense.

? Minimum Releasable Feature-MRF?

• The smallest feature that fits into an MBI or MVP.
• A fully functional, single feature or function that provides real value to customers.
• Could potentially be deployed on its own.
• Sometimes called a minimum marketable feature.

Minimum Marketable Release-MMR?

• A batch of one or more MBIs.
• Sometimes called the Minimum Marketable Product MMP.

Minimum Viable Product-MVP

• An investment in creating a new product or service.
• Created to explore hypothesis.
• Often starts as a functional prototype where some functionality is simulated or performed manually.
• Aim is to do just enough work to get something in front of potential customers to learn what they really want.
