What’s in it

The research

What two published studies say about rework, late fixes and the time developers spend working out what the business means, and what they do not tell you.

The estimate

How to turn that research into a cautious estimate for your own project, with a worked example for a five-person, six-month team and every assumption shown.

The how-to

A one-page business case template, answers to the objections you will hear, and a five-minute script for the steering meeting.
