3 Prepare Capacity Planning, Backlogs, Portfolio Items Hierarchy, Timeboxes and Milestones

4 Backlogs Create backlogs at every level. Making informed decisions is tough if you don t have visibility into the planned initiatives. CA Agile Central s project and portfolio hierarchy lets you create, align and see plans and backlogs for a single team, a delivery group (teams of teams) and multiple groups across your portfolio. Unlike other agile tools, the CA Agile Central platform enables roll-ups without the need for custom reports, work items or plug-ins. 4

5 Portfolio Items Hierarchy Align development to business priorities. Know your teams are working on the most important things. See how user stories roll up and align to features and initiatives, and see real-time progress on your most important business priorities. Only CA Agile Central helps you properly organize work items so you always have a complete, accurate view of your work. 5

6 Timeboxes Develop on cadence. Deliver working software, on time. In CA Agile Central, it's easy to set up your iterations, releases and delivery groups so you can release on cadence. 6

7 Milestones Deliver on demand. You can t reap the benefits of what your teams are building until you deliver it to your end users. Milestones help you plan and track feature work against critical delivery dates. CA Agile Central is the only platform that lets you plan to both development releases and important business milestones. 7

9 Portfolio Kanban Flow value to customers. What you build next will impact your bottom line. The CA Agile Central Portfolio Kanban helps you see work in process and bottlenecks, while prioritizing the flow of work from business analysis through implementation. CA Agile Central is unique in that it lets you configure your Portfolio Kanban view to support decision-making needs at every level. 9

10 Feature Backlog Build the right things. Sometimes what you re planning to build isn t what your customers want. CA Agile Central helps product managers factor in customer value, market risk and scope of work. 10

11 Release Planning Plan realistic releases. Bring your demand (top initiatives and features) and your capacity (delivery groups or teams) together to optimize what you can deliver. See how the prioritized features in each release deliver on your vision. 11

12 Team Planning Create a better plan. Gain needed visibility into prioritized features and take the guesswork out of planning. Break down features into stories and plan them into iterations. Identify dependencies and mitigate risks to produce an actionable release plan that delivers optimum value with low risk one everyone can commit to. 12

13 Performance Metrics Predict future velocity. Understand past performance so you can reliably predict future performance. See each team s progress over time to determine velocity (and capacity) for future iterations and releases. 13

15 Release Tracking Drill into bottlenecks, steer to completion. How can you resolve bottlenecks if you can t spot them? In CA Agile Central, program managers can see progress at a glance, identify and drill into problem areas and guide efforts to successfully complete the work. 15

16 Portfolio Timeline Keep business stakeholders in the loop. Don t speak in user stories when you need to get the attention of business leaders. Help them better understand progress and guide scope with a timeline view that shows actual progress against planned dates and upcoming business milestones. 16

17 Release Metrics Track progress of key delivery objectives. Manual information gathering isn t quick or accurate. Track high-level progress in real time against delivery objectives using milestones and release and portfolio item views. 17

18 Iteration Status Steer at the iteration level. Don t let teams lose sight of their objectives. Our Iteration Status page empowers teams to manage their work with a comprehensive view of critical, real-time information about their plans and progress. 18

19 Team Kanban Flow work through teams. What s the best way for a team using Kanban to decide what to pull next? Do flow-based planning and tracking with swimlanes that organize and prioritize work. CA Agile Central seamlessly supports roll-up reporting across teams with mixed methodologies such as Scrum and Kanban. Unlike other tools that fake it by providing a board view on top of timeboxed scrum iterations, the CA Agile Central Team Kanban board supports true, continuous flow. 19

20 Team Board Flow work through all teams. What if your teams need to get started quickly and provide visibility at the enterprise level? Owned by the team, Team Board makes it easier for teams to get started without admin assistance. A core element of Agile Central, Team Board allows organizations at scale to see data from all their teams, not just Scrum teams. Unlike other tools that check the box on supporting work from all teams, Team Board allows for flexibility of process at the team level, while ensuring visibility and alignment at the enterprise level. 20

21 Work Views Access work across multiple teams. What if you could manage work of all types for one or many teams on one page? Built for teams, product managers and product owners to find work faster and easier; work with backlogs across multiple teams; see and save a single view of all work, within one or multiple teams.. Work Views allows for flexible visibility of work across multiple teams; ensuring better alignment at the enterprise level. 21
