Vaccine booking and restaurant-inspection scheduling both expect the same public-health Scrum Team’s full capacity next quarter. What should happen at the portfolio level?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Two products grabbing one team is two bosses claiming the same ambulance. If vaccine booking and restaurant inspections both think they own 100% of the people, somebody is lying to the portfolio. Make the capacity split explicit at the portfolio level, or stop pretending it is two teams.
Full Explanation
Shared Scrum Team capacity is a portfolio decision, not a local negotiation to hide. When two products each assume full capacity, forecasts, Product Goals, and stakeholder promises become incoherent. Leadership should make ordering and allocation explicit—choose one product, or state a real split. Secret 50/50 splits, extra Product Owners, or first-email rules all leave the constraint untransparent.
