Guiding investments by horizon is one of the four Lean budget guardrails that describe the policies and practices for budgeting, spending, and governance for a specific portfolio. This guardrail helps ensure that the portfolio allocates its budget to solutions that reflect different time horizons and risk profiles, balancing near-term opportunities with long-term strategy and growth1. The portfolio-level guidance for investments by horizon is based on the four horizons model2, which categorizes solutions into four types: Horizon 0 (solutions that are being decommissioned), Horizon 1 (solutions that are mature and generate most of the current revenue), Horizon 2 (solutions that are emerging and have high growth potential), and Horizon 3 (solutions that are exploratory and have high uncertainty). Each value stream should allocate its budget to solutions in these horizons according to the portfolio’s vision and roadmap1. References: 1: Lean Budget Guardrails - Scaled Agile Framework2: Investment Horizons - Scaled Agile Framework

 Culture is the first element of the CALMR approach to DevOps in SAFe. It refers to the shared mindset and values that support successful DevOps adoption. Culture in SAFe is influenced by the Lean-Agile principles and practices that guide the entire framework. Culture in DevOps requires customer-centricity, collaboration, trust, empowerment, learning, and feedback among all the stakeholders involved in the value stream. Culture also fosters a shift-left mentality, where operational and quality concerns are addressed early and often in the development process. Culture is the foundation for the other elements of CALMR: automation, lean flow, measurement, and recovery. References: CALMR - Scaled Agile Framework, The CALMR Approach to DevOps [Complete Guide] - KnowledgeHut

According to the SAFe Implementation Roadmap1, the step that follows Coach ART Execution is Launch more ARTs and Value Streams. This step involves identifying and launching additional ARTs and Value Streams that are needed to deliver the full solution value. It also involves synchronizing the dependencies and alignment across the ARTs and Value Streams, and establishing Solution Trains to coordinate them. This step is essential to scale up the benefits of SAFe and achieve business agility. References: SAFe Implementation Roadmap, Launch More ARTs and Value Streams, Exam Study Guide: SP (6.0) - SAFe Practitioner

This statement is one of the Lean budget Guardrails, which describe the policies and practices for budgeting, spending, and governance for a specific portfolio1. Continuous Business Owner engagement means that the Business Owners, who are key stakeholders for each Agile Release Train (ART), are actively involved in the planning, execution, and review of the value delivery1. They provide feedback, guidance, and approval for the PI objectives, features, and enablers, as well as participate in the Inspect and Adapt (I&A) workshop and the Program Increment (PI) system demo2. Continuous Business Owner engagement helps ensure alignment, transparency, and accountability for the value streams and ARTs1. References: Lean Budget Guardrails, Business Owners

Acceptance criteria are the conditions that a story must satisfy to be accepted by the Product Owner and the stakeholders. They define the boundaries of the story and provide guidance on how to test it for completion. Acceptance criteria are usually written as a list of statements or scenarios that describe the expected behavior and outcomes of the story. They help to ensure that the story delivers value to the user and meets the Definition of Done1234. References: Story - Scaled Agile Framework, How to Write Agile Test Case Requirements | SmartBear, Agile Story Completion Checklist - SDLCforms, Module 2: Complete a story - IBM

Uncommitted objectives are used to identify work that can be variable within the scope of a PI. The work is planned, but the outcome is not certain. Teams can use uncommitted objectives whenever there is low confidence in meeting the objective. They are not included in the team’s commitment or counted against teams in the ART predictability measure. They are extra things teams can do if they have time and capacity, but they will not be penalized if not achieved. References: PI Objectives, What is an uncommitted objective in SAFe?, SAFe 5.0, PI Objectives - Easy Agile

Pursuing perfection is one of the five principles of Lean Thinking1. It means that the organization is continuously looking for ways to improve its products and processes, by identifying and eliminating waste, increasing quality, and delivering value faster. Pursuing perfection involves the activities from recognizing an opportunity through release and validation, as well as learning from feedback and applying the lessons learned to future work2. References: 1: Lean Thinking: Overview, Principles, Benefits, & Applications Explained2: [Pursue Perfection – Lean Practice | Planview LeanKit]

 WIP stands for work in process, which is the amount of work that is currently being done in a system. One way to understand WIP is to make it visible to all stakeholders, using tools such as Kanban boards, cumulative flow diagrams, or burn-up charts. By making WIP visible, we can see the current state of the work, identify bottlenecks, limit WIP to match capacity, and improve flow efficiency. References: Principle #6 – Visualize and limit WIP, reduce batch sizes, and manage queue lengths, Make Value Flow without Interruptions, SAFe Principle 6: Visualise and limit WIP, reduce batch sizes, and manage queued lengths

 One of the activities that occurs during the PI Planning event is the identification and analysis of the potential risks that may affect the delivery of value by the Agile Release Train (ART). The risks are categorized using the ROAM board, which stands for Resolved, Owned, Accepted, and Mitigated. The Managed category is a subset of the Mitigated category, where the risks are assigned to owners who are responsible for monitoring and controlling them throughout the PI. The Managed category addresses the potential risks that cannot be resolved, owned, or accepted, but can be reduced or avoided by applying appropriate strategies and actions. References: Exam Study Guide: SP (6.0) - SAFe® Practitioner, ROAMing Risks

= The four core values of SAFe are alignment, built-in quality, transparency, and program execution. They represent the fundamental beliefs that are key to SAFe’s effectiveness and guide the behaviors and actions of everyone participating in a SAFe portfolio. Alignment ensures that everyone is working toward a common direction and strategy. Built-in quality ensures that every element of the solution meets the appropriate quality standards. Transparency fosters trust and collaboration among all stakeholders and enables fast and effective decision making. Program execution ensures that the value is delivered to the customers in the shortest sustainable lead time. References: = Core Values - Scaled Agile Framework, Scaled Agile Framework: Understand SAFe and Its 4 Core Values
