SDLC Experience Workshop

The Tampa Bay IIBA Chapter conducted a Software Development Life Cycle Experience Workshop in a hands-on 11 Week experience - August, September and October of 2025. 90 Individuals from around the world came together to tackle real life problems, and create the solutions while learning about the SDLC.

Team Two

Our team represents six countries, five time zones, and a wide range of levels of experience.
When we formed, we were a group of strangers - now we are a working team!

Project Deliverables - By the Product Owner

The Project Tracker tool in Slack was used for task tracking and progress monitoring.
The Team worked with the Kanban Board view, which aligns perfectly with the Agile development approach.
It visualized the workflow providing a clear view of tasks as they moved through stages such as To Do, In Progress, In Review and Done.
This setup improved transparency and accountability, making the current status of each work item visible to all team members.
It also helped limit work in progress (WIP), allowing the Team to focus on completing ongoing tasks before starting new ones, thereby reducing bottlenecks and making deliverables more manageable.
A total of 11 Milestones were defined, corresponding to the SDLC stages and the rhythm of the Event
The Milestones view of the Project Tracker clearly showed the Project timeline: how work was sequenced, where overlaps occurred, and how resources were distributed
To coordinate effectively across 5 time zones the worldtimebuddy.com service was used. In addition to 11 common sessions 6 internal Team meetings were conducted.

Project Deliverables - By the Project Manager

The Project Charter artefact was used to capture the Project Requirements
It outlines the Project Goals and Objectives as measurable Success Criteria
Provides the Project Description and the expected delivery/outcomes
Defines the Project Stakeholders and the Target Audience of the final product
The Scope boundaries are also clearly established
The assessment of the project feasibility with the given Resources and Constraints was done
4 Project Risks were identified and mitigation strategies were developed accordingly

Project Deliverables - By the Product Owner

The Product Canvas provides a one-page, high-level artefact that aligns the team on the product’s purpose, users, value, features, success measures, and risks. It outlines the following:

The Problem Statement which highlights the difficulties and inefficiencies in splitting and tracking group expenses, which lead to errors, delays, and social discomfort.
The Product Name identifies the product as “FairShare”, reflecting fairness, transparency, and simplicity.
The MVP (Minimum Viable Product) defines the initial core features needed to create, share, and track a group bill with up to 15 participants using a simple website/app interface.
The Metrics sets clear measures of success such as quick event setup, accurate calculations, faster settlement, higher completion rates, and repeat use.
The Target Audience (Big Picture) focuses on people who organise and participate in shared expenses for social dining, trips, and group activities, using simple web/app access.
The Product Details outlines the product’s structure, roles, data elements, user flows, and the limits of the MVP, keeping the experience simple and transparent.

Project Deliverables - By the Business Analysts

Use Case Diagram was used to provide a high-level, user-focused view of the system scope. 2 roles were identified: Bill Owner and Participant
Use Cases Registry was developed to serve as a central repository for documenting and managing how users interact with a system.
A process map for the “Bill Owner - Create a Bill” flow was designed to visualize the process of creating a bill and splitting it between participants
A process map for the “Participant - Update Payment Status” flow was designed to visualize the process of paying one’s share of the bill.
13 User Stories were developed to capture stakeholder and solution requirements. They were prioritized and organized in a backlog as work items, serving as the basis for team collaboration and as a single source of truth for subsequent requirement elaboration.
Business Rules Registry was used as a centralized, accessible storage for managing and governing the business rules that were identified during the requirements elicitation.
Low-Fidelity Wireframes were created to visualize and discuss the user experience, and later served as the basis for high-fidelity wireframes and UI prototyping.
