About the Change Control Process template

Change is inevitable in any project, but it doesn't have to be chaotic. The Change Control Process template provides a structured, visual framework to manage incoming requests and prevent scope creep. Instead of letting unexpected changes derail your timeline, this template helps your team bring order and transparency to the decision-making process, ensuring every adjustment is deliberate and aligned with your project goals.

How to use the Change Control Process template

Submit the Change Request. Add a new card to the "Suggested Change" column for any new idea or request. Include a clear title and a detailed description to capture the initial thought.
Review and Evaluate. Move the card to the "In Review" column. Here, the team can discuss the request's impact and effort. Update the card with key details like an Assignee, Priority, and Estimate.
Make a Decision. After the review, move the card to either "Accepted" or "Rejected." This step provides a clear, visible decision for all stakeholders, ensuring everyone is aligned on the outcome.
Track Implementation. Once an accepted change is complete, move the card to the "Integrated" column. This confirms that the change has been successfully implemented and serves as a final record in your workflow.

Why use the Change Control Process template?

Create a single source of truth. Centralize all change requests in one place, so nothing gets lost in email threads or side conversations.
Increase transparency and alignment. The visual Kanban board gives everyone a clear view of where each request stands, reducing confusion and keeping stakeholders informed.
Prevent scope creep. By implementing a formal review process, you ensure that only valuable and approved changes are added to the project scope, keeping your work focused and on track.

Product Backlog Template

Miro

Development teams are often juggling many products at once. A product backlog is a project management tool that helps teams keep track of projects in flight as they build and iterate, so you can store everyone's ideas, plan epics, and prioritize tasks. The highest-priority tasks are at the top of the product backlog, so your team knows what to work on first. Product backlogs make it easier for teams to plan and allocate resources, but it also provides a single source of truth for everyone to know what development teams are working on.

Product / Market Fit Canvas Template

Miro

The product/market fit canvas template is used to help product teams meet customer and market needs with their product design. This template looks at a product in two dimensions: first, how the product fits user needs, and second, how the fully designed product fits within the market landscape. This combined metric understands a product holistically from the way customers use and desire a product, to the market demand. By comparing customer and product qualities side by side, users should better understand their product space and key metrics.

Production Workflow Template

Miro

Whether you’re producing a podcast, a marketing campaign, a TV show, or a piece of content, establishing a production workflow is crucial. A production workflow creates a visual guide to the different steps in a process. It can be used to train new team members or give a high-level overview to stakeholders. Although production workflows vary by team and business, they generally contain information about who the stakeholders are, how you brainstorm ideas, what your timeline looks like, and what resources you need to succeed.

Product Canvas Template

Miro

Product canvases are a concise yet content-rich tool that conveys what your product is and how it is strategically positioned. Combining Agile and UX, a project canvas complements user stories with personas, storyboards, scenarios, design sketches, and other UX artefacts. Product canvases are useful because they help product managers define a prototype. Creating a product canvas is an important first step in deciding who potential users may be, the problem to be solved, basic product functionality, advanced functionalities worth exploring, competitive advantage, and customers’ potential gain from the product.
