Investment distribution overview

The best teams know where their time is spent and balance efficiently between the most impactful work and housekeeping. It ensures they can reach the high-impact business objectives and solve the right problems in the short term, without compromising the capability to do so over the long term.

Here are some common anti-patterns to observe when it comes to allocating time:

  • The majority of your time is spent on bug fixing and maintenance work
  • Technical debt is increasing over time, and is not being addressed
  • An increasing amount of time is spent working on ad-hoc projects
  • Less than 50% of the time is spent on roadmap work

Swarmia’s new investment distribution view gives transparency to the different areas of work teams focus on to help you achieve a balance in how the time is spent.

Use it to see your time allocation by area, and drill down into individual projects to investigate further.
