Dependency
What is a project management Dependency? Learn more about Dependency mapping and other PM terminology in our resources library.
In project management, a dependency describes a relationship between two initiatives that must be executed in a particular order. If Initiative A is dependent on Initiative B, then Initiative B must be completed first. This situation frequently comes up in cross-functional teams, where development progress in one area is often dependent on the completion of certain stories or initiatives in another.
