Why Scope Creep Derails Sprints and What to Do Instead

“It’s just one small request…”

That’s how most scope creep starts.

Your sprint looks clean. Focused. On track.
Then someone slides into Slack with a "quick" feature, bug fix, or improvement.

And suddenly:
– Velocity dips
– Focus fractures
– Sprint goals go sideways

Scope creep mid-sprint isn’t always malicious.

Sometimes it’s a business fire. Other times it’s a planning blind spot.

But the outcome is the same, your team’s commitments take the hit.

In this article, we talk about how to mitigate scope creep and how Rally helps.
