A roadmap is an artifact that shows the planned features and milestones for a solution over a timeline. It helps Product Managers communicate the vision and strategy to Product Owners and other stakeholders, and align them on the priorities and dependencies of the work. A roadmap also provides a feedback loop for validating assumptions and adapting to changing customer needs and market conditions.

Wait, can one ART really handle Request 1 alone? Sounds risky.

Not sure about that, Request 2 seems too big for just the Portfolio Backlog.

I believe Request 1 should be a Feature in the ART Backlog, and Request 2 as an Epic in the Portfolio Backlog. That aligns with what we studied!

I feel like both requests should be in the Portfolio Backlog, but that doesn't seem right for Request 1. I need to think this through more.

I remember something about Epics and Features from our practice questions. Maybe Request 1 is a Feature and Request 2 is an Epic?

I think Request 1 should go to the ART Backlog since it's incremental and can be handled by one ART. But I'm not sure about Request 2.

Okay, let me think this through. The key seems to be whether the requests are incremental innovation or a major opportunity impacting multiple stages. I'll need to weigh those factors.

Hmm, the question is asking about the Lean Portfolio Management process, so I'll need to make sure I understand the differences between the ART Backlog and the Portfolio Backlog.
