Efficient Agile Release Trains for valuable Development Value Streams
Program and Solution Kanban
- Visually manage the flow of Features or Capabilities from ideation to analysis, implementation, and release through the Continuous Delivery Pipeline,
- Rank highest-priority features using WSJF rate,
- Customize Kanban boards and workflow to fit the ART’s process, as the definition of WIP limits and the specific policies for each process state.
ART cross-team Backlog after Features Exploration by teams
At Team level, ideas of feature that support the enterprise strategic themes are analyzed by the Teams according to their specificities and responsabilities:
- Turn the loosely-formed idea into well-formed features with descriptions, business benefit hypotheses, acceptance criteria, prototyping and estimated story points,
- Split Features into smaller User stories at Team level,
- Automatically populate each Team backlog when Features and Stories have been explored and are ready to be planned, as well the ART backlog with the synchronisation mechanism.
Flexible Program Increments Planning
ART is where the Agile Product Delivery team gathers and consolidates the Backlog of the product. Here is the place for planning, building, and validating a full system increment, demonstrating value, and collecting feedback:
- Visualize analyzed and ready-to-be-planned features into the cross-project backlog
- Plan Program Enablers and/or Features in a Program Increment and prioritize them by drag’n dropping them at the right place
- Automatically mirror Program Increments and iterations created at Program level to Teams level
Shared vision of the Product Roadmap
- Quickly visualize what functionality will be delivered when, in the upcoming or current Program Increment,
- Monitor the overall progress with real-time updates,
- Configure the layout to display timelines, dependencies and features break-down.
