When should government technology programs be organized as Solution Trains?

AWhen the program crosses multiple agency divisions or branches

BWhen the cost of the program exceeds $100M

CWhen the program involves classified information

DWhen the size and complexity require two or more ARTs

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: D

According to theSolution Trainarticle on the Scaled Agile Framework website, Solution Trains are the organizational construct used to build large solutions that require the coordination of multiple ARTs and suppliers. The article states that ''Solution Trains form for different reasons. Some trains form with new ARTs and Agile Teams to specifically address a large initiative, while others begin by combining existing ARTs and teams.'' Therefore, the correct answer is D, when the size and complexity require two or more ARTs. The other options are not relevant to the definition of a Solution Train.

I see your point, Mozell. It could be a valid reason to organize as Solution Trains.

B seems too arbitrary. $100M is just a number, it's the scale and complexity that matter. I'd say D is the best choice here.

I'm going with A. When multiple agencies are involved, you need that coordination and alignment that Solution Trains provide.

Definitely D. If the program is that big and complex, Solution Trains are the way to go. Anything less would be like trying to herd cats with boxing gloves on.
