To keep the project timeline intact during multiple client revisions: Set Clear Expectations: Establish revision limits and deadlines upfront in the project scope. Prioritize Revisions: Tackle high-impact changes first to maintain focus on key deliverables. Streamline Feedback: Consolidate client feedback to avoid piecemeal revisions, ensuring clarity and reducing back-and-forth. Allocate Buffer Time: Build a buffer in the timeline for inevitable changes, keeping the project on track. Communicate Proactively: Keep clients informed on how revisions impact the timeline, urging quick and aligned feedback. This approach ensures smoother revisions without derailing timelines.

As a UI/UX designer, I manage, by setting clear expectations, limiting revision, prioritizing key changes, consolidating feedback, communicating trade-offs early, documenting versions, and aligning stakeholders to keep the project on track.

Setting up clear expectations, outcomes, roles and escalation is key. From there regular communication and building the relationship/trust is equally important because if snag happen, you will have credibility. However, as changes occur, having a well-defined process to communicate and determine impact is necessary before implementing and at what point do you say no or charge the client especially if changes are last minute or certain development hours have already been exhausted.

To keep the project timeline intact despite multiple revisions, I begin by setting clear revision limits and timelines with clients upfront. This manages expectations and reduces the chances of last-minute changes. I also use a collaborative platform to gather feedback in a centralized way, making communication smoother and more efficient. Lastly, I prioritize revisions based on their impact and incorporate them strategically, ensuring the most critical changes are made first. This approach keeps the project on track while still addressing client needs.

1. Set clear expectations upfront, including possible revisions 2. Prioritize feedback: Address high-impact changes first 3. Suggest batch revisions to minimize frequent back-and-forth 4. Use a project management tool to track timelines and tasks 5. Communicate regularly with clients, explaining the impact of revisions on the timeline 6. Offer alternative solutions or compromises to save time 7. Implement a revision limit in the contract to maintain control
