Bigger than an epsilon.

An increment or difference, from maths. Used in sciences for e.g. change in speed over time.
In this case it will mean something like if you complete the work to current requirement now, then the follow up meetings will be sufficient to cover small changes to requirement as they occur.
Might have escaped into business world from economics, or IT where it used quite a bit. e.g. you do a full backup of your files every month, but you also backup the daily delta - i.e. the files that have changed that day. You can then reconstruct any day from the last complete backup plus a number of deltas.

What is 'delta'? Keep hearing the US of Aers say it. As in, "we'll do this work then that meeting will just be a delta"
