Hi Atlassian Community!
Our team has decided to use projects to manage larger initiatives for better visibility on roadmaps/plans. If it's a smaller feature request with minimal LOE, we instead use an epic under a "container" project for ongoing maintenance/bugs/small initiatives.
The question frequently comes up - should this be created as a project or epic in Jira?
We're trying to create a standard criteria to answer this question rather than having to discuss each request. Maybe something like if we expect the request to take X development hours or more, it should be a new project; otherwise an epic in the existing container project.
Has anyone else run into this issue and how do you make the decision? We're hoping to standardize the decision making process rather than discussing each on a case-by-case basis.
Thanks in advance,
Nikki
