Developing a learn, build, measure approach
Prototyping is a key part of an effective iterative software delivery approach. It allows teams to quickly vet new ideas with minimal investment, mitigating risk and keeping the focus on taking a meaningful product to market.
Prototype to understand an effective approach

Focus delivery efforts with prototyping
Whether the requirements are unclear because of shifting priority, uncertain technical implementation, or overall complexity in the problem, prototyping efforts provide a clearer path forward for teams to develop functional software.
Define your prototyping experiment
Set clear goals and objectives for every prototyping effort, and agree on the amount of time and energy it is worth. At Devbridge every experiment we execute has a clear hypothesis that is being tested and criteria for evaluation.
Rapid prototyping validates new ideas
Creating multiple prototypes in a short period of time allows teams to work through multiple product directions, sometimes without writing a line of code. Each approach may have its own risks and rewards. Rather than constraining that conversation to the theoretical, rapid prototypes put those concepts in the hands of users for quick feedback and decision making.
Understand requirements, mitigate risk
At the core of every prototyping effort is a desire to better understand the problem space, and better understand the risk associated with a particular approach. By breaking down complexities early, teams address risks before they become product-threatening problems. Teams build a shared understanding of the approach that drives better individual decision-making across all roles.
