Engineering-Driven Task Sequencing: Delivering More Value, Faster

2025-05-14

This article presents an engineering-driven approach to task sequencing that helps teams deliver more value, faster. Traditionally, Product Managers determine task order based on the PRD. However, engineers better understand the cost and dependencies of tasks. A better approach involves engineers prioritizing tasks based on value, cost, and feasibility, even reframing solutions to reduce costs. For example, the case study shows an engineer opting for a weekly email instead of building a complex dashboard, delivering some value early before tackling more complex tasks. This significantly improves value realization, allowing teams to create more value in a shorter timeframe.
