Your agile project faces scope creep. How will you maintain client relationships and meet delivery timelines?

Moreover, establishing a formal change request process can help manage scope creep by requiring detailed documentation and justification for each new request. Additionally, regularly updating the project scope and progress reports can maintain transparency and reinforce the impact of any additional changes on the overall project timeline and budget.

-Do not hide the reasons for delay or fake it. Trust can be built only on transparency. -Communicate proactively with the client! -Get the regular feedback, which many times comes as a surprise and details the entire project's scope. -Prioritize open discussions to clarify which changes are essential and offer alternative solutions that align with the project's scope. Also give pros and cons. -Introduce a formal change management process to handle additional requests without derailing progress. -Maintain flexibility by negotiating timelines if needed, but always set clear boundaries. Lastly Regular updates and transparency will help manage expectations and maintain trust while ensuring timely delivery.

Don't chew more than you can bite. The old saying holds true here. Just make sure to let your clients know: We're on the same boat here, So let's adopt an 100% honesty policy. Communicate clearly to set the correct expectations. And execute correspondingly. Ultimately, nobody likes unwanted surprises. But everyone respects honesty, punctuality and precision. As Bill Walsh used to say: "Look after the process And the score will take care of itself."
