What is included in the Inspect and Adapt agenda?

The Inspect and Adapt agenda is fundamental to the SAFe framework, enabling teams to reflect on their progress and continuously improve their processes and product delivery. It incorporates both quantitative and qualitative measurements to provide a comprehensive evaluation of performance.

Quantitative measurements involve numerical data that can indicate trends, such as velocity or cycle time, allowing teams to assess their productivity and efficiency objectively. This data-driven approach helps in identifying areas needing improvement or adjustment.

Qualitative measurements, on the other hand, offer insights into team dynamics, stakeholder feedback, and customer satisfaction. They help teams understand the subjective experiences of team members and customers, leading to more nuanced insights that numbers alone may not capture.

By combining both types of measurements, the Inspect and Adapt agenda promotes a well-rounded review process that can lead to informed decisions and strategic adjustments. This dual approach fosters a culture of transparency and learning, essential elements in the agile mindset.
