Murphy’s law of “Anything that can go wrong will go wrong” doesn’t exclude software development (unfortunately). There’s many risks associated with any development project, from communication breakdowns to changes in scope and timeline to a developer moving on. But there’s also many ways to mitigate these risks when you start working with a tech team. In this episode, Tim outlines common risks associated with app development and how to get on the same page as your development team to have systems in place to mitigate them.
In this episode, you will learn:
- How to prepare for developers moving on
- How to mitigate risk should the tech agency you’re working with go out of business
- How to set clear expectations around communication
- Why modern best practices with software development handle a lot of the risks associated with deliverables
- How to prepare for app store rejections
- The biggest hurdles affecting the timeline of development projects
- How to address changes to scope
- What empathy has to do with estimating software development
