Question

An agile team has completed the final release of a customer-facing application and is preparing to disband. The operations group will assume ongoing support, but they have not been closely involved during development. The product owner is eager to release the team to a new initiative as soon as possible. What should the project manager do FIRST to ensure continuity?

Accepted Answer

Develop and execute a transition plan that includes documentation, knowledge-transfer sessions, and a support handoff to operations before disbanding the team.

Answer

Release the development team immediately since all sprints are complete and value has been delivered.

Answer

Ask the operations group to review the code repository on their own and raise a ticket if they encounter problems.

Answer

Schedule the final retrospective and archive project artifacts so the team can move to the new initiative.
