When is collaboration with System Architects and the Systems Team likely to have the greatest impact on Solution development?

A. At the System Demo

B. During PI Planning

C. During the daily stand-up

D. At the Inspect and Adapt event

Correct Answer

B. During PI Planning

Explanation

This stage is where strategic decisions are made that will guide the development efforts in the upcoming Program Increment. It’s a collaborative effort involving multiple stakeholders, including System Architects and the Systems Team, to ensure that the planned work aligns with the system’s architecture and addresses its scalability, performance, and security needs. Effective collaboration during PI Planning can have a profound impact on solution development by setting clear expectations, aligning on the architectural vision, and addressing potential roadblocks early in the process.

Why Others Are Not Correct

• At the System Demo: It’s more about validation and feedback on completed work rather than planning and influencing future development.


• During the daily stand-up: These are focused on immediate tasks and short-term issues rather than long-term architectural planning and impact.


• At the Inspect and Adapt event: While important for process improvement and addressing past issues, it’s less about direct collaboration for future solution development and more about reflection and adaptation based on past PI performance.
