</p>
<p> Each phase may have as many iterations as needed, depending on degree of novelty
of the business domain, technology being used, architectural complexity, and
project size, to name a few factors. </p>
<p> To offer a quick start for teams to plan their iterations,&nbsp;OpenUP/Basic
provides&nbsp;work breakdown structure (WBS) templates for each iteration and
a WBS template for an end-to-end process. </p>
<p> Iterations may have variable lengths, depending on project characteristics.
One-month iterations are typically recommended, because
this timeframe provides: </p>
<ul>
<li> A reasonable amount of time for projects to
deliver meaningful increments in functionality. </li>
<li> Early and frequent customer feedback. </li>
<li> Timely management of risks and issues during the course of the project.
</li>
</ul>
<p> OpenUP/Basic is intended<strong> </strong>to
offer process guidance to small projects: </p>

The purposes of this delivery process are to:

<ul>
<li>
Offer process guidance for small-scale projects
</li>
<li>
Allow project managers to create project plans based on the proposed work breakdown structures

<li>
Allow project managers to track status based on goals

<li>
Allow&nbsp;team members&nbsp;to understand how to perform their work to achieve project goals

Provide a complete, end-to-end delivery process that serves as an example for defining alternative delivery
