This means that Value Stream Mapping helps teams identify and eliminate any activities or processes that slow down or stop the delivery of value to customers.The handbook states that 'Value Stream Mapping helps reveal bottlenecks to the flow of value in the Continuous Delivery Pipeline.'1Therefore, Value Stream Mapping helps teams optimize their value stream and improve their delivery performance.


Question 3

What is the recommended way to prioritize improvement items for the DevOps transformation?

Choose the correct options from below list



Answer : B

The recommended way to prioritize improvement items for the DevOps transformation is to use Weighted Shortest Job First (WSJF). WSJF is a prioritization model that considers the cost of delay, job size, and economic value of each improvement item.It helps to identify the most urgent and valuable items that can be delivered in the shortest amount of time


Question 4

Question 5

Which metric reflects the quality of output at each step in the Value Stream?



Answer : C

According to the SAFe DevOps Practitioner 6.0 study guide and handbook, the metric that reflects the quality of output at each step in the Value Stream is Percent Complete and Accurate (%C&A). This metric measures the relative cost of delay divided by the relative job duration, which indicates how efficiently the value stream delivers value to customers.The handbook states that 'Percent Complete and Accurate (%C&A) is a metric that measures the relative cost of delay divided by the relative job duration.'1Therefore, %C&A helps teams identify and eliminate any waste or inefficiencies in their value stream.

Question 7

Which steps in the value stream should be the main focus when prioritizing improvement items?



Answer : B

According to the SAFe DevOps Practitioner 6.0 study guide1, when prioritizing improvement items, the steps with short Active Time and high %C&A in the future-state map should be the main focus. Active Time is the amount of time a step spends on performing work, while %C&A is the percentage of capacity utilization of a step. The future-state map shows how the Value Stream will look like after implementing improvements, based on customer feedback and business value. The improvement items are ranked by their impact on flow efficiency, customer satisfaction, and business agility. The steps with short Active Time and high %C&A in the future-state map indicate that they are bottlenecks or waste sources that need to be eliminated or reduced as soon as possible. Therefore, they should be prioritized for improvement actions.
