Conquer Salesforce Story Gaps with Well Architected Technical Input
Apr 29, 2025
Buyan Thyagarajan

In every Salesforce CRM implementation, there’s often a disconnect between what’s described in an agile story and what actually needs to be built. User stories may capture the “what” and “why,” but the “how”—particularly the technical specifics—tends to be assumed, fragmented, or skipped altogether. This leads to missed scope, inaccurate estimates, and painful rework.
