Delivery Approach
From operating context
to a responsible release.
The sequence provides structure. Decisions inside every phase stay specific to the eCommerce product, its owners, and its constraints.

Shape a Useful First Release
Set the product boundary, core flows, assumptions, dependencies, and a technical path that can be reviewed.
03/
Build and Review in Increments
Implement visible slices, verify important states, and use stakeholder review to resolve questions while the product takes shape.
04/
Plan Ownership After Launch
Agree rollout, access, monitoring, handoff, and the evidence needed to choose the next change responsibly.
