One Slide At A Time Episode #32 - Business Value Management

Using Business Value Points (BVP) for User Stories to help define scope, help prioritize and make planning smoother.

BVP can use the same framework as Story Points (i.e. a modified Fibonacci Sequence).

For example:

BVP 13 - Will provide a definite and significant tangible ROI (increase revenue, transactions, generate repeat customers) or is a Compliance Item which will result in Penalties if not done (Loss of Revenue)

BVP 8 -  Will provide some ROI (either a small - medium or is purely speculative)

BVP 5 - Is Necessary Cost of Doing Business but no Significant ROI

BVP 3 - Definitely will Delight the Customer but Low ROI

BVP 1  - Nice to Have; May Delight the Customer but Little to No ROI
