Revamp
A substantial reworking intended to improve how a product process or system functions or is organized.
Plain English
Make a meaningful overhaul rather than a small adjustment.
In context
A revamp should define the problems outcomes scope migration and success measures because the word alone does not reveal whether architecture behavior or appearance will change.
Example
“The onboarding revamp changes the workflow content and supporting APIs.”
