How long does it take to understand the problem and write design documents?


According to every project manager/“agile coach” I’ve ever worked with, that would be part of a one-hour “grooming meeting” and if it takes longer than that, you must just be an incompetent developer, in need of more “coaching”.


3 to 6 months... maybe longer. The key is to focus that time towards collecting data to help sell to stakeholders.
