PROPOSAL Proposal – a meeting with the stakeholders/SME’s to discuss the amount of work, timeline, and proposed type of deliverable for the project. PROTOTYPE Prototype – an early approximation of the final product is built, tested, and reworked as necessary until an acceptable result is achieved. Minimum Viable Product (MVP) – a version of the new product which allows a team to collect the maximum amount of validated learning about the customer with the least effort. MVP Implementation – making the MVP available to the customer with a plan that allows for continuous changes based on feedback and customer need. IMPLEMENTATION
