Company overview
Aurix is a 58-person engineering software company with four squads contributing to a connected product platform.
The challenge
Squads planned independently and discussed shared dependencies only after sprint scopes were mostly set. A small platform change could create unexpected work for several teams.
The process
Aurix mapped cross-squad dependencies during planning, linked them to shared milestones, and required an owner and resolution date before sprint commitment.
The solution
AlignIQ made dependencies visible beside the objectives and tasks they affected. Engineering leads could review impact without rebuilding a separate coordination board.
Shared context
Keep the objective, brief, and delivery plan connected.
Clear ownership
Give each milestone an accountable owner and a next action.
Human review
Review AI planning suggestions with the people doing the work.
The results
Late dependency discoveries fell by 30% across four engineering squads. The 58-person team entered sprint planning with clearer sequencing and fewer surprise blockers.
