The Asset Tracking MVP: A 53-Day Deep Dive

46%

Faster Delivery

How one project proved our methodology works.

The Experiment

Our portfolio was drowning in context switching. So we ran a pilot: What if we could protect a team's focus on just one critical project?

We picked the Asset Tracking MVP - a high-priority initiative that kept getting delayed. We allocated 35% of team capacity with strict protection from interruptions.

The Data That Shocked Leadership

Original Estimate
(with typical multitasking)
116 days
Actual Delivery
(with protected focus)
63 days
Acceleration
 
46%

When leadership saw these results, they asked for deeper analysis. The findings confirmed what we suspected: multitasking was destroying productivity.

The Hidden Cost of "Busy"

Our deep-dive analysis revealed what industry research confirms:

  • 86% of work involves context switching, taking 223% longer
  • Teams on 2 projects only deliver 40% effort to each
  • 5+ concurrent projects = less than 10% contribution per project

Research Findings

  • • 86% of work involves context switching
  • • 223% longer completion times
  • • <10% effort per project (5+ concurrent)
  • • Exponential productivity decay

Framework Validation

  • • Controlled experiment design
  • • Protected capacity allocation
  • • Measurable productivity gains
  • • Scalable methodology proven

From chaos to predictable delivery

What This Means for Your Portfolio

This wasn't luck. It was systematic. When you eliminate context switching through the right framework, you don't just save time - you multiply capacity.

The Pilot Proved

  • • Small focus allocation (35%) creates massive acceleration
  • • Our methodology turns chaos into predictability
  • • The framework scales across any portfolio
  • • Your current capacity is hiding under multitasking waste
