The Scrum Agile Team<\/strong><\/a> consists of three main roles, Product Owner, Scrum Master, and the Development Team members. Scrum Teams are self-organizing and cross-functional. The team model in Scrum is designed to optimize flexibility, creativity, and productivity. At SVPM, our scrum team follows the best practices outlined in The Scrum Guide<\/a> <\/strong>published by Scrum.org.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Agile Work Flow<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The goal of Scrum events is to create regularity. Once a Sprint begins, its duration is fixed and cannot be shortened or lengthened. The remaining events may end whenever the purpose of the event is achieved, ensuring an appropriate amount of time is spent without allowing waste in the process. Here are the phases of the Scrum Team’s workflow: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Kickoff Meeting \/ Product Backlog Refinement (5-10% of total sprint time, e.g. 1hr\/20hr sprint)<\/li>
  2. Sprint Planning (max 8hrs\/month Sprint)<\/li>
  3. Daily Scrum (15-minute\/day during Sprint)<\/li>
  4. Sprint Review (max 4hrs\/month Sprint)<\/li>
  5. Sprint Retrospective (max 3hrs\/month Sprint)<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
