GAQM Exam CASPO-001 Topic 1 Question 10 Discussion

The Product Owner's primary accountability is maximizing the value of the product, per the Scrum Guide. Metrics should reflect outcomes, not just internal process efficiency:

A (Time to market): Faster delivery of Increments to the market validates value through real-world feedback, a key Scrum principle.

B (Customer satisfaction): This directly measures whether the product meets user needs, aligning with value delivery.

C (Velocity): While useful for Developers to gauge capacity, it's an internal metric, not a direct indicator of value.

D (Productivity): This focuses on effort, not outcome, and isn't tied to value in Scrum.

E (Budget spent): Spending doesn't guarantee value; it's a cost metric, not a value metric.

Thus, A and B best help the Product Owner assess value.
