Events for the Train

The ART executes events in the same fashion the Agile team does, only at scale. ART events are slightly different from team events. Let’s look at the various activities and events that occur in each iteration and throughout the PI for an ART, including all the syncs, the ART Board, and the Iteration System Demo.

In this chapter, we’ll look at the following topics:

  • The Syncs
  • Don’t skip the ART Board
  • Iteration System Demo

The Syncs

The equivalent of a Team Sync for the ART is the ART Sync. Depending on the ART, it may take various formats. The outcome is always alignment, impediment removal/escalation, and risk management.

SAFe® outlines three different sync events for the ART:

  • The Coach Sync
  • The Product Owner (PO)
