Introduction:

The Value vs. Effort Model is a strategic tool used to prioritize initiatives based on their potential value and the effort required for implementation. This detailed report aims to analyze various features and initiatives for Foosty Food Delivery App, mapping them on a matrix to determine their prioritization for implementation.

Methodology:

The Value vs. Effort Model assesses each initiative based on two main criteria:

  1. Value: The potential impact or value the initiative brings to Foosty and its customers.
  2. Effort: The level of resources, time, and complexity required for implementing the initiative.

Initiatives are then plotted on a matrix with quadrants representing High Value/Low Effort, High Value/High Effort, Low Value/Low Effort, and Low Value/High Effort.
