Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe) Release Train Engineer Practice Test

What is critical for the final plan review to include?

1. Updates to capacity and load

2. Punctuality of team presentations

3. Future planning sessions

4. Metrics for team velocity

The correct answer is: Updates to capacity and load

The final plan review centers on ensuring that the program's plans are realistic and achievable within the given constraints. Including updates to capacity and load is crucial as it reflects the actual availability of the team's resources and their ability to handle the anticipated workload. Understanding the updated capacity allows for better alignment with the team's output and avoids unrealistic commitments. By accurately reflecting these changes during the final plan review, stakeholders can make informed decisions about the feasibility of the proposed plan and the risk of overcommitting. It also facilitates discussions on potential trade-offs and adjustments that may be necessary to enhance the plan’s viability. While punctuality of presentations, future planning sessions, and metrics for team velocity are relevant considerations in planning activities, they do not directly influence the immediate assessment of whether the final plan can be executed successfully based on current capabilities.
