How scopes work

Three ways to run a scope

Every scope is milestone-based, SLA-backed and delivered from your Delivery Plan backlog in the Software Factory.

Fixed outcome, fixed finish state

Outcome-driven sprints

A bounded piece of work with an agreed finish state, such as an MVP live with users or an API serving real clients. Milestones are agreed before work begins.

See 199 sprints ↑
Embedded capacity

Pods

A standing cross-functional team, such as QA, platform or commerce engineering, that works your backlog sprint after sprint.

See 17 pods ↑
Run it for you

Managed SLAs

Ongoing upkeep under response targets: maintenance, OS updates, uptime, observability and release QA, month after month.
