The product ownership analysis (POA) practitioner analyzes delivery measures to conduct a:
Full set: 60 questionsThe analysis of delivery measures is a fundamental task within the Product Ownership Analysis (POA) framework. Its primary purpose is to use quantitative data (e.g., cycle time, velocity, lead time) to objectively assess the performance of the delivery process. This data-driven insight is then communicated to stakeholders during reviews. This allows for transparent conversations about progress, helps manage expectations, and provides a factual basis for making decisions regarding the product's direction and delivery strategy.
B. retrospective on the product backlog and evaluate the team's performance. While delivery measures are an input for team retrospectives, their purpose in POA is broader, focusing on communicating overall delivery performance to all stakeholders, not just the team.
C. meeting on the product road map and evaluate the team's headcount. Delivery measures inform roadmap forecasting by providing data on delivery pace, but they are not used to evaluate or determine team headcount, which is a capacity input.
D. workshop review on the organization's delivery and retrospective behaviour. This is too broad and imprecise. The analysis is focused on the specific product's delivery performance, not the entire organization's processes or "retrospective behaviour."

Section 5.2.1, Purpose: "The purpose of Analyze Measures and Report on Performance is to use data to gain an understanding of the current state of the product and delivery, and to communicate that information to stakeholders." This directly supports using measures to evaluate delivery and report to stakeholders.
Section 5.2.4.3, Reporting: "Reporting on performance provides stakeholders with information about the product and delivery. This information is used to make decisions, manage expectations, and ensure alignment." This reinforces the concept of a stakeholder review based on performance data.
