What are the benefits of the template?

Roadmap Prioritization

With this powerful template your teams will be guided through a collaborative product roadmap prioritization process step by step.

The template leverages the prioritization tools and frameworks that are used by leading technology companies:

• RICE Framework (Reach, Impact, Confidence, Effort)
• Buy-a-Feature planning exercise
• linking to OKRs
• proposing how to mitigate risks

All teams across product, design, engineering, business, marketing and strategy can understand what is being proposed and agree on the final prioritization.

Product Engineering/Development/Design teams are full participants in the process. They can model their team capacity over time and plan their actual availability to work on roadmap items without forgetting to reserve time to work on tech-debt and customer support/bug-fixing activities.

The result of the planning exercise is not just a stack-ranked wishlist, but a prioritized list of roadmap items on a timeline with dependencies tracked.

You can then turn this into your new roadmap to be communicated to the entire company.

This process is designed for a 3-month (quarterly) planning horizon where the teams work at the end of every quarter to plan the work for the coming quarter, it can be adapted for other durations.

Roadmap Communication

With this template your product team can communicate the product roadmap to all internal stakeholders, keeping it updated as plans change.

Readers can get overviews of major planned ships and see a timeline of what is coming when. They can also dive into details on why it is important, what it will look like, when it will ship in beta or general availability, FAQs and links to more documentation.
