Select two tactical scaling factors that must be considered when analyzing the team's context.

When analysing context, Disciplined Agile evaluates tactical scaling factors that directly affect day-to-day ways of working. The DA toolkit lists “Team Size” and “Geographic & Demographic Distribution” as separate tactical factors (CYW fig. 5-2, pp. 211-213). Demographics (culture, language, time zones) shape communication practices, while team size drives coordination strategies. Budget, best practices, and team dynamics are not part of DA’s enumerated tactical scaling factors.

B. Best Practices – DA promotes context-sensitive choices, not a fixed scaling factor.
C. Budget – Important constraint but classified under governance, not tactical scaling factor.
E. Dynamics – Emergent property influenced by factors; not an item on DA scaling list.
