Sprint
Project Management Professional glossary · Project Management Professional
Definition
A timeboxed iteration, one month or less, producing a potentially releasable increment.
Sprint in plain English
Imagine a kitchen that plates food every two weeks: the menu (backlog) gets clarified before cooking, the chefs only commit to what fits the shift, and the plate doesn't leave until it meets a shared "done" checklist. Sprint is one of the rules that keeps that kitchen from chaos. Hold onto this precise job description: A timeboxed iteration, one month or less, producing a potentially releasable increment. On a stem, name whether Sprint is about timing, ownership, measurement, or delivery style — then eliminate the answer that borrows a cousin concept from the wrong phase.
