Which DSDM product identifies Timeboxes for the project?

1. Prioritised Requirements List

2. Development Approach Definition

3. Delivery Plan

4. Management Approach Definition

The correct answer is: Delivery Plan

The Delivery Plan is the product within the Dynamic Systems Development Method (DSDM) that identifies Timeboxes for the project. Timeboxes are fixed periods during which a set of work is completed and are a fundamental component of agile project management. This product outlines the overall schedule for the project, including the various Timeboxes allocated for different phases of development and delivery. In DSDM, the Delivery Plan serves as a roadmap that helps teams manage their workload and ensures that the project remains on track. It enables stakeholders to visualize the progression of the project within the constraints of time and resources. The use of Timeboxes allows teams to focus on delivering incremental value and provides a mechanism for frequent review and adjustment based on feedback, enhancing flexibility and responsiveness to change. The other options serve different purposes: the Prioritised Requirements List organizes requirements by importance, the Development Approach Definition describes how the team will approach the development work, and the Management Approach Definition outlines governance and management activities. While important for overall project structure, they do not specifically define the Timeboxes.
