hard · Project Management Professional Adaptive / Agile
Ironvale Grid is facing a 50-point backlog growth in a fixed-date release. The PM suggests the team use 'Vertical Slicing' for the new items. Why?
- Vertical slicing is a schedule compression technique similar to fast-tracking.
- Vertical slicing allows the team to deliver smaller, usable pieces of value sooner, providing the PO with more options for descoping less critical sub-features.
- Vertical slicing allows the PM to assign specific layers of the architecture to different team members.
- Vertical slicing reduces the total story point count of the backlog by removing architectural complexity, without revisiting the agreed prioritization criteria.
