Merging Engineering and Product Teams at a SaaS Scale-Up

What this challenge is about.
Your task is to propose a team integration plan for DataFlow. You need to analyze the current team dynamics, identify sources of conflict, and recommend structural changes (e.g., cross-functional squads, shared OKRs) and a change process to foster collaboration. Success means achieving a 20% reduction in time-to-market for new features within 3 months. Deliverables include a team diagnostic report, a proposed new organizational structure, a change implementation plan, and a set of metrics to track progress.
