I started the mini-series in episode 189 by providing the following guidelines:

Don't invest in estimates unless there are clear demonstrable value in having them
Agree what a "valuable" estimate looks like - this will likely be a desirable level of accuracy and precision for an estimate
Provide the team with training & time to develop their estimation skills
Collect data on points 1-3 and regularly review if you have the balance correct

In this episode we dive into "Don't invest in estimates unless there are clear demonstrable value in having them"

Estimates are not free – and I would argue that truly valuable estimates are often prohibitively expensive to produce.

Thus in this episode, I ask the question are you getting the ROI on that investment. And more importantly – can you prove that.
