Explanation
PI Planning is a cornerstone SAFe event, and its three primary outputs are the Program Board (A), Team PI Objectives (B), and the Vote of Confidence/Commitment (D). The Program Board visualizes feature delivery timelines and cross-team dependencies across the PI. Team PI Objectives are the business and technical goals each team commits to delivering, scored by business value. The Vote of Confidence (fist of five) is the formal moment where the teams publicly commit - or surface risks - before the PI begins.
Why the distractors are wrong:
- C (Top 10 Features): Features are inputs to PI Planning, not outputs - they come from the Program Backlog before the event starts.
- E (Portfolio Vision): Portfolio Vision is also an input, providing strategic context that informs what teams plan toward.
- F (Iteration Goals): These are set during Iteration Planning (sprint-by-sprint), which happens after PI Planning. PI Planning produces PI-level objectives, not iteration-level ones.
Memory tip: Think "BOV" - Board, Objectives, Vote. The Board shows the plan, Objectives capture the commitments, and the Vote locks in the confidence - together they answer what, why, and are we ready?
