Technical Debt Program/Technical Debt Engagement Model

Overview
The Technical Debt Engagement Model is meant to provide a base structure on how the Technical Debt Program will engage with the various stakeholders. Although engagement requests are welcome, the expectation is that the Technical Debt Program will initiate the engagement. The desire is to keep the engagement model as light-weight as possible, the model has been split into four distinct steps.

Worth noting as well is the desire to develop an approach that works for the team while also accomplishing the shared organizational objective of reducing technical debt. The Technical Debt Program will work to provide guidance and best practices, but fully understands that a more tailored approach may be necessary, especially early on.
