To turn vague product requirements into a production-grade plan, you need to map information architecture, define top user flows, enumerate branching scenarios, and outline transversal requirements like security and compliance.

An implementation plan for early-stage features includes a high-level navigation map of information architecture, top user flows, branch sets for each scenario, transversal requirements, and a phased backlog with a Definition of Done evidence plan.

Identifying transversal requirements and branching scenarios involves analyzing each top user flow to enumerate specific branch sets, while simultaneously mapping cross-cutting concerns such as data compliance and security across the entire product architecture.

Yes, you can generate a phased backlog from ambiguous feature requests by expanding the initial requirements into a comprehensive plan that structures information architecture and user flows into prioritized implementation phases.

The best way to map information architecture for ambiguous product requests is to expand the vague requirements into a high-level navigation map that connects top user flows and cross-cutting concerns into a cohesive structure.

You should avoid using a product depth expansion approach for well-defined features or minor updates where a comprehensive plan mapping information architecture, branching scenarios, and a phased backlog is unnecessary.
