QuestionQ20

Supporting ART Events

Three teams on the Agile Release Train are working on the same Feature. Team A is a complicated subsystem team, while Teams B and C are stream-aligned teams. During PI Planning, Teams B and C committed to delivering their portions of the Feature by the end of Iteration five and plan to integrate with one another, together with Team A's piece, in the first week of the IP Iteration. Why is this considered an anti-pattern?

Explanation

SAFe reserves the Innovation and Planning (IP) Iteration for an estimating buffer, innovation, learning, planning, and Inspect and Adapt activities. Work should not be planned into the IP Iteration during PI Planning, so scheduling committed feature integration there consumes that reserved capacity.
