We introduce them our already working solution with the curtail functionalities… they were shocked. They could believe, that we done the most difficult job already and we ask them if we can skip the requirement in the agreement, they couldn’t say no… ?\nWhat was for us even more important we won their trust. \nOur work now based on the sprint orders and everyone is happy\n
