1) It uses a minimal viable product (MVP) to establish real data on where the company stands at
any
given juncture. An MVP is the fastest way to establish a customer feedback loop with minimal
output of effort.
Its primary goal is to test fundamental business hypotheses without having to perfect the product
or service in question too prematurely.
2) Using the MVP, start-ups, through many attempts, move from the baseline to the ideal, when
the company then reaches a decision point.
3) At this juncture, a company is either making solid progress toward the ideal enough that it
makes sense to continue, or persevere. If not, the strategy must be deemed flawed and in need of
serious change―or as Ries labels it, a pivot, which starts the process all over again and in a more
productive fashion than before.

It is correct that the Epic Owner is responsible for driving the Epic through to the Go/no-go
decision point (approval). But their responsibilities do not end there. After the Epic has been
accepted for implementation the Epic Owner must collaborate with Agile teams to shepherd the
development and realize the benefits. Depending on the situation the Epic Owner may stay
engaged on an ongoing basis.https://www.scaledagileframework.com/epic-owner/
