Agile Alphabet Soup - MVP, MMF, MMP, MBI...

Phill Akinwale, PMP, ACP, OPM3
About this episode

Description: In this episode, we delve into the world of agile product development and explore some of the key concepts that are essential for success. For many students, the acronyms MVP, MMF, MMP, and MBI can be a mystery, but we will demystify them and help you understand their purpose.

We will start by discussing the minimum viable product (MVP), which is a critical concept in agile development. We will explain what an MVP is and how it can be used to quickly validate assumptions and reduce risk in product development.

Next, we will talk about the minimum marketable feature (MMF), which is an essential part of agile development that helps teams focus on delivering value to customers. We will explore the differences between an MMF and an MVP and why they are important in the development process.

We will also discuss the minimum marketable product (MMP), which is the minimum set of features required to launch a product to the market. We will explain how the MMP differs from the MVP and MMF and why it is critical for successful product launch.

Additionally, we will explore the concept of minimum business increment (MBI), which is an essential part of agile development that helps organizations deliver value incrementally and continuously. We will explain how the MBI is different from the MVP, MMF, and MMP and how it can be used to prioritize work.

We will also cover road mapping, visioning, and chartering, which are critical tools in agile product development. We will discuss how road mapping can help teams plan and prioritize work, how visioning can help teams stay focused on the big picture, and how chartering can help teams define their goals and objectives.

Throughout the episode, we will emphasize the importance of value and prioritization in agile product development. We will explain how to define value, how to prioritize work based on value, and how to use a product roadmap to track progress and measure success.

Overall, this episode is a must-watch for anyone who wants to understand the key concepts and tools that are essential for success in agile product development.
