NPD Jargon Buster: Issue Register

Keeping track of potential problems and issues can be difficult, especially in large or complex projects

Keeping track of potential problems and issues can be difficult, especially in large or complex projects

Without a clear system for tracking and addressing issues, they can quickly become overwhelming and unmanageable. This can cause delays, frustration, and even project failure.

An Issue Register is one solution. This document logs all problems that occur during a project, regardless of whether they affect the tolerance or not. It allows teams to deal with issues as soon as possible in the most efficient way possible. The Issue Register is a “living document” that is continually updated as a project progresses. At Innovolo, we help you manage this critical document effectively and efficiently.

An Issue Register is an important document in any project, but it is especially critical in product development projects.

There are several components of an effective Issue Register:

1. Keep the register up-to-date. As a project progresses, the register should be continually updated to reflect the latest issues and problems.

2. Make sure all stakeholders are aware of the register. The team should make sure that everyone who needs to know about the register is aware of it and has access to it.

3. Use the Issue Register for lessons learned. The register can be used to provide important information about what has worked and what hasn’t worked in the project, which can help improve future projects.

4. Track problems over time. The Issue Register should only include the most recent issues, not unresolved older issues.

5. Ensure all members are aware of the issue tracking process itself to ensure it is followed by everyone involved in the project.

In conclusion, the Issue Register is an important document in any project. If you want to be successful with your product development projects, make sure that you’re aware of this critical register and how it can help keep track of potential problems and issues during a project. You should also ensure all stakeholders are aware of the issue tracking process itself to ensure it’s followed by everyone involved in the project.
