Velocity is a good measure of team performance.
Velocity is a measure of how much work a team completes in an iteration, but it is not a measure of performance. Velocity helps teams plan and forecast, but it should not be used to compare teams or assess individual performance. Using velocity as a performance metric can lead to gaming and diminished quality.
''Velocity is a planning tool, not a performance metric. Comparing velocities between teams or using velocity to assess team performance is discouraged.''

(Select 2) What are the responsibilities of a Business Owner?
A: Business Owners assign business value to PI Objectives during PI Planning, ensuring alignment with business priorities and objectives.
B: Business Owners participate in PI events (including Post-PI Planning) and help ARTs adjust plans to better meet business needs.
Assigning value to Epics/Features (C) is the responsibility of Product Management. Ensuring the Solution Demo (D) is a shared leadership responsibility, not specific to Business Owners. Determining the roadmap (E) is owned by Product Management.

When does the System Demo happen?
The System Demo is a key event in SAFe that happens at the end of every iteration. It provides an integrated view of the new features delivered by all the teams in the Agile Release Train during the most recent iteration. This demonstration allows stakeholders to evaluate the solution's progress and provide feedback.

SPC 6.0 Guide: ''System Demos occur at the end of every iteration, providing feedback on the fully integrated solution increment.''

What is NOT the responsibility of the Enterprise Architect?
Enterprise Architects focus on cross-ART and cross-Value Stream strategy and technical alignment. Defining Solution design for Agile Release Trains (C) is the responsibility of Solution/System Architects at the ART or Solution Train level, not Enterprise Architects.
''Enterprise Architects define and communicate a shared technical and architectural vision for the enterprise. Solution and System Architects design at the ART/Solution Train level.''

(Select 2) Why is Architectural Runway important?
The Architectural Runway in SAFe consists of the existing code, components, and technical infrastructure necessary to support the implementation of prioritized, near-term Features without excessive redesign and delay. Its importance is twofold:
It supports a stable velocity (A): Teams need sufficient architectural runway to maintain a predictable velocity and reduce technical debt. As stated in SAFe, ''Architectural Runway enables teams to build features quickly and efficiently, thus maintaining stable velocity.''
It iteratively evolves the architecture to meet changing needs (C): SAFe recommends an incremental and emergent architectural approach. The runway is not static; it evolves to meet the emerging business and technical requirements, ''just enough, just in time.''
Incorrect options:
B is incorrect---while documentation may be produced, the runway itself is not documentation but actual working infrastructure.
D is incorrect---runway specifically supports technical changes, not nontechnical ones.
SAFe 6.0 Website: Architectural Runway
SPC 6.0 Guide: 'The runway must be continually maintained and extended to provide the foundation for developing Features and Capabilities at a sustainable pace.'
