QuestionQ87

Governance

Universal Containers (UC) is hiring offshore agile development teams to reduce costs and improve UC’s ability to deliver new features to its customers. However, the CTO cannot track or measure those teams’ work.

What should an architect recommend to improve transparency?

  • A Schedule a daily stand-up meeting with representatives of all offshore teams to share the progress of the teams
  • B Request the offshore teams to share their work in progress in a virtual Kanban board tool
  • C Ask the offshore teams to add their progress and status in a shared spreadsheet
  • D Request the offshore teams to send daily emails to the CTO with the progress of the teams
Explanation

A shared virtual Kanban board visualizes each team’s workflow and work in progress, giving the CTO and other stakeholders a current, common view of progress. Kanban relies on visualizing work and managing work in progress to support transparency and inspection.
