Project Management Course - Beginner to Project Manager Scrum Project Life Cycle Explained: Sprints, Planning, and Agile Delivery In Scrum, the project life cycle starts with a traditional initiation phase where the goal, scope, and feasibility are defined. This is followed by high-level planning, including workshops to clarify product requirements, user needs, and overall direction, while leaving detailed execution to be refined later. Before development begins, a sprint zero phase helps structure the backlog and distribute work across upcoming sprints. Execution is then carried out in short, time-boxed iterations called sprints, typically lasting two to four weeks. Each sprint delivers a usable part of the product and ends with a review or demo session where stakeholders provide feedback, allowing the product to evolve incrementally. Changes are incorporated between sprints rather than during them, ensuring focus within each iteration. After every sprint, a retrospective is held to reflect on the team’s process and continuously improve performance in the next cycle. Finally, once all sprints are completed, the project enters a closure phase where the customer formally accepts the final product and the project is officially completed. This structured yet flexible approach is what makes Scrum effective for adaptive project delivery.
