Building the Agile Release Train

Launching an Agile Release Train (ART) can be a daunting task. There are numerous things to consider when building your ART, including the following:

  • Its structure and composition
  • Why it’s important to align your ARTs to Value Streams
  • Key roles in the ART
  • What a Troika is, who is on the Troika, why the Troika is important, and the influence needed for success
  • What a System Team is

We will take a look at each of these areas and help you understand some key considerations, regardless of whether you are launching your first ART, recovering an ART, or maturing an ART.
