A public-works digital twin team asks whether a daily coordination meeting is mandatory. How should they contrast Scrum and Kanban on this point?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Scrum’s Daily Scrum is on the calendar like a required morning roll call for the Developers. Kanban might hold a standup if it helps flow—but it’s not the same mandated Scrum event with Scrum’s rules. Required versus optional is the key nuance.
Full Explanation
Scrum defines the Daily Scrum as a formal event for the Developers to inspect progress toward the Sprint Goal and adapt the Sprint Backlog. Kanban centers on visualizing work and limiting WIP; teams often adopt standups, but those meetings are optional practices rather than Scrum’s prescribed Daily Scrum. Component awareness prevents forcing Scrum events onto every Kanban board.
