What is the primary goal of the Program Increment (PI) Planning event?

The primary goal of the Program Increment (PI) Planning event is to plan the work for the upcoming iterations within a PI. During this critical event, all team members, stakeholders, and key participants come together to create a shared understanding of what will be delivered in the upcoming increment.

This collaborative planning process enables teams to align their objectives, understand the dependencies among teams, and identify potential risks and challenges associated with the planned work. It facilitates the setting of priorities for the various teams within the Agile Release Train (ART) to ensure that everyone is synchronized and focused on the same goals.

By effectively planning the work for the iterations, the teams can optimize their workflow and increase their chances of delivering value at the end of the increment. This structured approach allows for better transparency, communication, and alignment across the teams and stakeholders involved in the program.
