Make the project structure visible
Organise the project into roadmaps and nested items. Add relevant status, priority, dates and ownership so the work has a useful level of detail.
Topolo for Product delivery teams
Keep the delivery plan connected to the work.
Organise projects, roadmaps and nested work items in Topolo Roadmap. Keep the shape of the plan visible when priorities change, and review proposed changes before applying them.
The work behind the workflow
A presentation of the plan is not the plan itself.
The roadmap slide says one thing; the delivery discussion reveals another. A milestone depends on work in a different stream, a decision changes the scope, and someone rebuilds the overview again. Keep the project’s structure and planning conversations close to the actual work, so the team has a clearer basis for deciding what changes next.
How it works
Turn a delivery conversation into an explicit plan.
Keep the hierarchy, the proposed revision and the decision to apply it in the same planning process.
Discuss a change in the right scope
Use planning sessions for the project, a roadmap or an item branch. Review the proposed revision in that scope before changing the saved plan.
Present the current plan
Use project, roadmap or item presentations to explain the work to stakeholders. Keep the discussion anchored to the project rather than rebuilding the same narrative from scratch.
Evaluate the wider workflow.
Keep the first exercise bounded, then check the handoffs needed for a broader process.
Product and programme delivery workflows
A delivery discussion is more useful when everyone can inspect the same plan. Keep intake, priorities and dependencies explicit so the next decision can be assessed against the wider commitment.
Capture the work
Bring the requested items into Roadmap with enough detail to explain the intended result.
Make the dependencies explicit
Connect the items that rely on each other and review the effect of a changed commitment.
Keep the reference close
Use Docs for the operational guidance and Chat for the delivery conversation around the shared plan.
Before expanding
Prove the sharing and planning behaviour with one workstream. Assess source control and CI needs in their own systems.
Bring a real example to the conversation.
Use these questions to explain your current process and agree what a useful evaluation would need to show.
Show the last delivery plan that changed because a dependency slipped.
Consider this against a recent example from your own process.
How did you discover the impact, and which decision was late?
Consider this against a recent example from your own process.
Which tool is authoritative for work status, and what would you refuse to maintain twice?
Consider this against a recent example from your own process.
Who supplies dates, owners and dependency updates? How often are they wrong?
Consider this against a recent example from your own process.
Who would maintain a ten-item trial plan and who can approve tool spend?
Consider this against a recent example from your own process.
Which delay scenario should the pilot surface, and what planning decision must it improve?
Consider this against a recent example from your own process.
Agree the result before the pilot.
These are proposed checks to tailor with the people doing the work. They describe an evaluation, not results already achieved.
Plan fidelity
Ten items and three dependencies match the agreed source plan and retain owners/status data.
Change
Update one delayed item and inspect affected dependency/forecast information.
Decision value
A stakeholder identifies an affected milestone and makes the pre-specified planning decision from the pilot.
Maintenance
Run two update cycles within the pre-agreed effort limit without inconsistent duplicate status.
Decision
Budget owner accepts the planning value or stops if plan upkeep exceeds the agreed benefit.
The suite
The apps around your workflow.
Start with the app that solves the immediate problem. Bring in the others when the work needs them, with access governed by each app and workspace.
Roadmap
Projects, delivery items and the dependencies behind the plan.
Compose
Business documents, saved versions and an assigned review.
Docs
Versioned documents, organised spaces, search and cited answers.
Bytes
Files, folders, search and sharing for the material behind the work.
Chat
Channels, direct messages, meetings, notes and shared files.
Calendar
Appointment types, availability and a clear booking experience.
Before you get started.
Useful questions for choosing the right starting point.
Do we have to generate the plan with AI?
No. Manual project creation is available. You can also review and edit an AI draft before applying it to create the project and its roadmap hierarchy.
Can a planning discussion focus on one workstream?
Yes. Planning sessions can be scoped to a project, roadmap or item branch. The scope determines which part of the hierarchy an applied revision can change.
Can we prepare a stakeholder presentation?
Roadmap supports presentations generated from project, roadmap or item state, with editing and export. Review the presentation against the current plan before sharing it.
