Lead-service-line inventory field crews have the skills to deliver a slice of value but are organized as a component “GIS-only” group. What should the SM/TC address before celebrating a method choice?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Calling the GIS-only crew 'Kanban' does not let them finish a lead-line inventory slice if the rest of the skills sit on another floor. Method is a steering wheel; a component silo is still a locked garage. Build a team that can deliver first.
Full Explanation
Selecting Scrum or Kanban assumes an Agile Team that can produce an increment. A component GIS group that cannot complete a resident-facing slice still has a flow problem no board will erase. The SM/TC coaches toward cross-functional team design rather than waiting passively for train-level reorganization or optimizing specialist utilization. Method choice is necessary later; delivery capability is first.
