QPM/Features/Relations Diagram

All connections logic — at a glance

The Relations Diagram in QPM visualizes dependencies between tasks, streams, and iterations.

You immediately see what needs to be implemented, which tasks are interconnected, how iterations affect each other, where there are potential risks of delays, and at which points adjustments should be made to ensure steady progress toward goals.

It’s an ideal tool for strategic planning, team synchronization, and managing the backlog.

Main functions of the Relations Diagram in QPM

The Relations Diagram allows you to quickly create iterations (sprints) and objectives (epics), build dependencies between them, and set priorities — without the need to dive into the details of each project. This saves managers’ time and helps maintain focus on a strategic level.

How the Relations Diagram works in QPM

The user creates a stream or an iteration, which can represent a business goal, product, project, or team initiative.

Why use the Relations Diagram in QPM

1
Transparency at all levels
You see not only tasks but also the complete picture of their relationships, dependencies, and mutual influence between iterations, teams, and business goals.
2
Improved planning
The convenient visual environment enables you to quickly set priorities, identify areas for improvement, and plan iterations more effectively.
3
Preventing blockages and delays
Easily identify tasks that could delay the achievement of key goals due to external dependencies or stage shifts.
4
Synchronization between departments
The tool shows which teams or departments your stream’s tasks depend on — fostering better cross-team collaboration.
5
Backlog optimization
Create, organize, and move tasks between iterations — keeping your backlog structured and under control.
6
Instant adaptation to changes
When priorities or circumstances change, you immediately see how it affects interconnections and can quickly adjust the work (development) plan.
