Backlog Grooming

Backlog grooming is the ongoing process of reviewing, prioritizing, and refining items in a product backlog to ensure they are clear, actionable, and ready for development. Team members clarify requirements, estimate effort, break down complex items into smaller tasks, and remove obsolete entries during regular grooming sessions. This practice keeps the backlog organized and enables development teams to work efficiently by providing well-defined work items at the top of the queue.

Backlog Grooming sits under Agile Product Management in the Product & Program Management domain of the Luminid skills catalogue.
