Unrealistic estimates, changing priorities, and poor communication create a lack of transparency around when projects will be delivered.
In this episode, Spencer Jack, the co-founder of Cardagraph talks about how he came up with the idea for this product management tool. He explains that as a sales-focused founder, he faced challenges when relying on engineering estimates for projects and a lack of transparency around when a project would be delivered. This often led to frustrations with internal and external stakeholders.
Spencer shares how Cardagraph evolved from trying to enhance Jira to becoming a tool that helps teams align projects with their actual capacity.The Cardagraph dashboard pulls data from Jira and displays time spent and planned on projects based on actual work, making the product delivery process more predictable.
He gives an example of a client, Premier Digital Services, who used Cardagraph to improve their product delivery and stakeholder management. This helped them communicate better with clients like Apple and avoid surprises by proactively addressing delays.
