Working Deliverables

The final, shippable output that the project was authorized to produce and hand over.

Key Points

  • The end product, service, or result ready for customer use or release.
  • Embodies the core value the project was funded to deliver and is tied to acceptance criteria.
  • May be assembled from multiple tested increments created iteratively.
  • Different from supporting artifacts (plans, reports, minutes) unless those are the requested product.

Example

In an e-commerce platform upgrade, the working deliverable is the live, production-ready website with secure checkout and integrated inventory. Iterations produce tested increments (e.g., login, product search, payment gateway) that are integrated and accepted before the final release.

PMP Example Question

Which statement best describes a working deliverable in an agile project?

  1. The final, releasable product that fulfills the project's objective.
  2. All internal project documentation required by the PMO.
  3. Any prototype created during development, regardless of readiness.
  4. The team's sprint backlog and daily status updates.

Correct Answer: A - The final, releasable product that fulfills the project's objective

Explanation: A working deliverable is the final shippable output the project was authorized to deliver; documentation, prototypes, and backlogs are supporting artifacts, not the product itself.
