Story 1 - paper work (Due date 26.04)
Topic
As Vodafone I want to pursue the project in an agile way to meet the uncertainties regarding the study goals.
To ensure this working model, the experiences of the last run shall be reported to every stakeholder
in this project. Applying this will be supported by the translation of the protocol written after the project
closing in 2018. The translation will be executed from German into English. The translation then is to be
transcripted into Russian language as well. To check whether the translation in either English or Russia the
paper has to re-read by someone out of the team and capable for evaluation. So the Russian version shall
be controlled by Prof. Gerhardt and the English version by Vodafone. The period of time for reading and
work in the adjustment may be mentioned, is to be calculated with 6 days.
Acceptance Criteria

Story 2 - survey creation (Due date 10.05)
Topic
As Vodafone, I want the analysis established through empiric elements. The method should cover a statistically relevant
amount of polls with randomly chosen persons in the considered markets. The goal of the interview is to get an insight,
usage, new streaming devices or products. Therefore, a survey is to be defined that meets three goals. The surveys question
allows an empiric and statistical analyses, which leads to a better understanding of today's tv behavior and customer needs.
Consider in advance what you want to find out through the survey and how this will be achieved. The survey has a size that
will be accepted from most of the interviewees and the papers will be provided in German, Russian and English language.
The survey must follow the rules of a verifiable interrogation filled with two similar questions randomly placed, so the
validity of the interviewed person can be confirmed in the analyses. Be aware of the questioning techniques in your survey.
Acceptance Criteria
- A survey as paper is created
- The surveys question meet the demands of the underlying project scope
- The survey can be used to analyze the current and future demands of tv customers
- The length of the survey is appropriate
- The survey is available in German and Russian language, further in English
- The validity of the answers is confirmed

Story 3 - Interim presentation (Due date 14.06)
Topic
As Vodafone, I want to know which results were achieved in Russia. In this respect, all achieved results will
be shown in an interim presentation. The focus of the interim presentation will be the course of the Russian journey
and the methodical approach of the survey (not the results). Therefore, the presentation should include the
course of the week, the goals achieved and the related problems. I am also interested in the cultural differences
that lead to problems or unclear issues during the week in Russia. Moreover, I would like to receive
the interim results of the survey. This includes the methodology used in the study, number of participants and difficulties.
This requires the participation of both project teams. Therefore, a Power Point presentation should be created and uploaded.
The presentation should be held by at least one German and one Russian team member in English.
The results of the survey are then presented in the review meeting.
Acceptance Criteria
- The method of interview for the survey is described and explained.
- The problems during the survey execution are highlighted.
- The course of the week in Russia is presented.
- Difficulties of coordination of tasks between Russia and Germany due to cultural differences are described.
- All requirements in the scope of the presentation are considered.
- Both project teams present the interim results.
- A PowerPoint presentation is created and uploaded to Jira.
- The presentation is held in English in the review.
