The process of accumulating unfinished work or orders; or deliberately adding items to a backlog for future processing.
From backlog (back + log) + -ing (present participle), forming the continuous form of the verb.
Backlogging is sometimes strategic—successful project managers deliberately backlog lower-priority work to focus on urgent items, turning a problem into a planning tool.
