Benefit-cost score
- Teams want a way to characterize high return work, as a signal to indicate what to work on.
- For example, if a feature requires very little effort, but has a huge business impact, then teams should prioritize this higher.
- Since GitLab has a lot of these metrics already, it would be ideal to allow a score to be calculated, possibly per issue or per epic.
- The "cost" part could be characterized by the issue weight, or summed weights in an epic.
- The benefit could be gathered through priotized labels, or other new fields.
- And then the benefit-cost score could be a weighted ratio.
