3. Backlog Management: Prioritize features and user stories
4. Acceptance Criteria: Define when a feature is "done"
5. Business Validation: Verify implementations match business goals

• User request or business need (from PM/User)
• Current Vision document (if exists)
• Implementation results (for validation)
