Contractors bid for jobs. They have to outline what they’ll do, how long it’ll take and at what cost.

Fehler #1: Die falschen Stakeholder werden eingeladen Aber wenn du wüsstest, wie viele Sprint-Reviews ich schon besucht habe, bei denen die einzigen Gäste die Entwickler aus dem benachbarten Team waren, dann könntest du nachvollziehen, warum ich es so drastisch formuliere. Wenn die Entwickler aus dem benachbarten Team die falschen Stakeholder sind, wer sind dann die richtigen?
