About the framework
See where a sprint goes
This pie chart divides engineering time into six categories totaling 100. Feature Development takes 42, Code Review 18, Bug Fixes 15, Meetings & Planning 12, Documentation 8, and On-call & Support 5. Because the values total 100, each slice can be read as a percentage of the sample sprint.
Use the example to discuss the balance between new work and the work that keeps a team running. The figures are illustrative allocations, with no team size, sprint dates, or timesheet source attached.
To adapt it, supply your categories and recorded hours or percentages for one reporting period. Keep the units consistent, and define where overlapping activities such as incident debugging belong before comparing sprints.

Frequently asked questions
Common questions
Are these recommended engineering time percentages?
They are sample values for discussing workload. Replace them with your team’s measurements or proposed allocation before using the chart in a capacity review.
Can I use hours instead of percentages?
Supply hours for each category from the same sprint. Ask for labels that make the unit clear so readers do not mistake hours for percentages.
Where should incident work go?
The sample separates Bug Fixes from On-call & Support but does not define their boundaries. Decide how your team classifies incidents, then rename or split those slices.
