During a backlog refinement meeting, a senior team member raises a concern about an epic sizing that requires the use of a new interface for a vendor product. The product owner acknowledges this as a risk. What should the product owner do now?
A.
Log the risk in the risk register, and share the information with impacted stakeholders at the next monthly review meeting
B.
Create a spike story to determine what needs to be done to use the new interface
C.
Lower the epic's priority so that it can be deferred, and analyze it during backlog refinement meetings
D.
Move the work to the vendor, since they have better knowledge of interface implementation
A. Log the risk in the risk register, and share the information with impacted stakeholders at the next monthly review meeting.
= no such artifact.
B. Create a spike story to determine what needs to be done to use the new interface.
= The best solution to clarify the size of the work to be done
C. Lower the epic's priority so that it can be deferred, and analyze it during backlog refinement meetings.
= we don't have any inputs about priorities. Only about sizing.
D. Move the work to the vendor, since they have better knowledge of interface implementation.
= It's too early to make decision since we are not sure about size.
A = wrong. There are no monthly review meetings in Scrum.
B = seems to be correct. The initial information is insufficient, meaning it has to be conducted more analysis and gathering needed info.
C = wrong. What if this epic is a top priority to the stakeholder? Based on which the PO should lower the priority?
D = wrong. This comes later (eventually)
It's difficult to estimate an epic because it is large. More analysis is required therefore the best response is C. If it was a user story then I would suggest B as the answer. The Epic needs to be broken down first to create the spike and to break it down we require more analysis and refinement.
Why not D? The PO has already acknowledge the risk and it is always advisable to mitigate risk early in the project. In this case, option D is the best way to mitigate the risk.
C is make sense. Perform feasibility analysis and other activities that help determine the viability of epics
