Initial Situation
- The customer has created a first version of his product as a prototype. With the product the conditions of insurance companies should become comparable.
- The further product design shall be done in a very lean way with small iterative steps.
- In a first step an MVP and afterwards an MMP (Minimal Marketable Product) should be created.
Challenges
- The prototype and thus the existing code must be adopted. There is no possibility to talk to the former service provider or the developers
- The requirements are kept very short, there are many ambiguities and room for interpretation.
