  • "If this is not a project, we should first establish a memorandum of understanding that gives us a sense of their availability, skills, minimum and maximum levels of support, and other parameters that would govern their involvement. With a project in hand, the same understandings need to be achieved or renewed before project commitment to see if tech/DS can fulfill the need.

    "This is a Measure Success question with a slight twist. The twist here is we need to consider a hypothetical improvement. This changes our formula slightly - specifically we may not be able to apply a UX flow to drive analysis since we're unsure of the implementation. Instead, we'll look at core behaviors that are indicative of success. Here's the modified formula: Ask clarifying questions State the goal of the feature **Apply a UX flow to drive analysis of what to measure"
