Which artifact captures the agreed objectives for the upcoming PI?

• A. Product backlog items
• B. Solution roadmap
• C. Program objectives
• D. Release plan

Answer: (C)

Program objectives are the agreed goals for the upcoming Program Increment, defined during PI Planning and used to align the teams and stakeholders around a shared target. They capture both the business value and the necessary technical outcomes the ART commits to delivering in the next increment, providing a clear measure of success at the end of the PI. backlog items are the individual work items teams will implement, not a concise statement of the PI’s aims. The solution roadmap offers a longer-horizon view of how the solution evolves across multiple PIs, not the specific objectives for this PI. The release plan focuses on timing and sequencing of features for releases, rather than the defined objectives the PI aims to achieve.
