[All SAFe-SPC Questions]

What are the primary responsibilities of Program Portfolio Management (PPM)?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

Program Portfolio Management (now commonly referred to as Lean Portfolio Management in SAFe 6.0) is accountable for:

Strategy and Investment Funding: Ensuring the portfolio's investments align with the enterprise's business strategy.

Agile Portfolio Operations (Program Management): Supporting program execution, including coordination and support across value streams.

Governance: Assuring compliance, monitoring progress, and evaluating outcomes.

SAFe 6.0 documentation emphasizes these three pillars as the core responsibilities of LPM/PPM.

Option D omits program management, while B and C list activities or deliverables but not the full scope of responsibilities.

I thought PPM was more about governance and strategy, so maybe D is correct, but I need to double-check my notes.

I remember practicing a question about program management and stakeholder management, but I don't think that's the main focus of PPM.
