Question

A vendor partner on the court-case ART is treated as outside "our performance." How should the Scrum Master / Team Coach assess value delivery?

Accepted Answer

Include how the team integrates with the vendor partner, not only internal velocity. — If the vendor is on the court-case path, they are in the picture. Internal velocity that dies at the handoff is a fake win. Value delivery includes how the team works with the partner.

Answer

Measure only internal velocity and ignore how cases stall at the vendor handoff.

Answer

Ask the Release Train Engineer to drop the vendor from the ART so scores look cleaner.

Answer

Score the vendor with a separate PMI process-group audit the team never sees.
