#agileworkhierarchy

Modern Scrum projects move fast — but visibility often does not. As products scale, teams struggle to clearly see how epics, features, stories, tasks, and sub-tasks relate to each other. The Epic Tree View in Orangescrum is designed to solve this exact problem by presenting the entire work hierarchy in a single, structured, and intuitive view.

This feature empowers project managers, Scrum Masters, and delivery teams to understand dependencies, progress, and scope at a glance — without jumping across multiple screens.

The Problem: Why Scrum Teams Lose Visibility as Projects Scale

In a typical Scrum project, work is broken down progressively — from high-level business objectives to executable tasks. However, as the backlog grows, teams often face these challenges:

Epics, features, and stories are managed in separate views, making it difficult to understand how work is connected.

Project managers must manually piece together information to answer simple questions like “Which tasks are blocking this epic?”

Scrum teams lose clarity on how their daily tasks contribute to larger business goals.

Stakeholders lack a single source of truth to track progress across the full hierarchy.

As a result, planning becomes reactive, reviews become fragmented, and predictability suffers. This is exactly why a clear, visual hierarchy is essential — and why we built the Epic Tree View.
