Scrum@Scale Backlog Prioritization

Competition between priorities creates waste and slows organizations down because it pulls teams in opposing directions. Proper backlog prioritization is essential for teams to work in a coordinated manner to optimize value delivery. The goals of Backlog Prioritization are to:

• identify a clear ordering for products, capabilities, and services to be delivered

• reflect value creation, risk mitigation, and internal dependencies in ordering of the backlog

• prioritize the high-level initiatives across the entire agile organization prior to Backlog Decomposition and Refinement
