Appian Community and Appian Academy are being upgraded. As a part of the upgrade, Appian Community is currently in read-only mode, and user registration is disabled until August 3. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, but a more secure, stable, and performant Community experience is coming soon!
The new Appian Community launches August 3, followed by Appian Academy on August 7. During the migration, Appian Community Edition, Appian Academy, Documentation, Certifications, Instructor-led Customer Training, Partner Sales Training & Accreditation, and Forum (for Appian Partners and Customers only) will remain available.
Are there any recommendations, tips, literature available for Sizing the requirements for Appian development ?
For other BPM platforms there are sizing sheets (Tool) available .

Hi,
Found this resource: https://community.appian.com/success/management/w/program-management/2164/project-sizing-and-estimation
As per my own experience, we estimate based on the assignees level of expertise and comfort on the changes required in a user story.
Other than that, if the changes are very simple and would not require extensive testing, then we provide estimation of 1-3 days. If the changes are of medium complexity and would need to be tested thoroughly, we generally provide estimate of 1-2 weeks. If the changes are complex, would require extensive analysis on backward compatibility and rigorous testing the estimation would be for 3-4 weeks.
Hope this helps!
For Simple what are the number of Workflow activities , integration points ?
