Agile Analysis Certification (AAC) — Question 10

The delivery team is in a meeting identifying cycle time improvement opportunities for delivery of the final product. They decide to apply the following technique:

Answer options

• A. Backlog management
• B. Value stream mapping
• C. Story decomposition
• D. Story mapping

Correct answer: B

Explanation

Value stream mapping is a technique used to analyze and optimize the flow of materials and information required to bring a product to the customer, making it suitable for identifying cycle time improvements. The other options, while relevant in agile methodologies, do not specifically focus on visualizing and improving the flow of processes like value stream mapping does.
