# Identifying Dependencies (+1)
## Identifying Dependencies
- **Technical dependencies**: Feature B requires infrastructure work from Feature A
- **Team dependencies**: Feature requires work from another team
- **External dependencies**: Waiting on a vendor, partner, or third-party integration
- **Knowledge dependencies**: Need research or investigation results before starting
- **Sequential dependencies**: Must ship Feature A before starting Feature B
## Managing Dependencies
- List all dependencies explicitly in the roadmap
- Assign an owner to each dependency
- Set a "need by" date
- Build buffer around dependencies -- they are the highest-risk items
- Flag dependencies that cross team boundaries early
- Have a contingency plan: what do you do if the dependency slips?
