Approach for stepwise delivery of functionality in short cycles with early feedback and continuous adaptation.
Iterative delivery is a stepwise delivery approach where functionality is developed, delivered, and continuously improved in short cycles based on user or market feedback. This approach reduces technical and market uncertainty, accelerates time-to-market, and enables ongoing validation of assumptions as well as early adjustments to prioritization.
