Roadmap of Next3 AWS

 

A project roadmap is a graphical, high-level summary of the project’s goals and deliverables that is displayed on a timeline. As a result, the project roadmap can be used to manage stakeholder expectations, communicate plans, and coordinate resources with other groups.

What is a Project Roadmap?

Project roadmaps give a strategic overview of the project’s primary components. Objectives, milestones, deliverables, resources, and a specified timetable should all be included.

Project managers can use roadmaps to convey a project’s strategic objectives to stakeholders as well as to maintain track of their project’s progress on an ongoing basis. A project plan should express the strategic justification for pursuing the project in the same way that a product roadmap does.

Why do you need a project roadmap?

When you begin a project, there are likely to be a lot of factors to keep track of. How do you keep track of everything? How is the workload distributed among your team members? What’s more, how can you stay on top of all the duties, ideas, and resources without becoming mired down in the details?

A roadmap gives you a bird’s eye view of the project without becoming bogged down in the nitty gritty. As a result, project managers who are responsible for keeping stakeholders informed about a project’s scope and progress will find it useful.

How can a project roadmap help you?

Here are some of the ways a project roadmap can help your project management:

Communicate goals to your team

A project roadmap is a highly graphic document that explains your project’s aims and objectives. When your team understands its goals, it’s easier for them to concentrate on specific activities.

It also provides a high-level overview of the project, which can aid you and your team in estimating the time needed to finish each step. It also serves as a reminder to your team of the project’s baseline, ensuring that they do not get sidetracked throughout the execution phase.

Recognize priority tasks

A project management roadmap can assist you in determining which stages of your project require the most attention. It can also provide a rough idea of the level of difficulty and effort required. Product maps are usually the result of further development of these stages.

Product roadmaps are similar to project roadmaps, except they focus on the vision and life cycle of a specific product.

Communication with stakeholders 

According to a KPMG project management survey, only one out of every three firms develop projects that are likely to satisfy their stakeholders.

Stakeholders expect teams to adapt minor adjustments during the execution phase, which has resulted in unhappiness. As a result, projects vary from their initial objectives, resulting in lost productivity.

By ensuring that everyone on your team is on the same page, a project management roadmap can help you minimize miscommunication between stakeholders and your team. It can help explain to stakeholders what measures were taken during the project’s implementation. Read More
