Question
Effort estimation variance is significant in improving sprint predictability as it refers to the difference between the estimated effort to complete tasks and the actual effort expended. This data reveals the accuracy of initial workload prediction and whether adjustments are necessary to refine future estimates. As these issues get addressed, teams can improve sprint predictability and size tasks more appropriately. Consistent and accurate effort estimation builds confidence for team members as they are able to better complete tasks with the right allocation of resources and time.
