• Product strategies, roadmaps and priorities are clearly defined, understood and aligned to business objectives.
• Investment decisions are increasingly driven by measurable value, evidence and outcomes.
• Teams focus on solving meaningful customer and business problems, rather than simply delivering requested features.
• Products continue to improve in reliability, usability, supportability and cost-effectiveness.
