Priorities can change mid-PI. When this happens, Product Managers and Product Owners need to communicate the change in priorities to Scrum Coaches and the team. The team may need to have a mini-planning session mid-PI to adjust to the re-prioritized work. The Scrum Coach and team can consult with the Release Train Engineer for guidance at any time.
During this re-planning, teams can:
- Create new Stories to reflect the actual work that is needed.
- Modify current Stories.
- Postpone or cancel Stories.
As always, the Scrum Coach and team need to clearly communicate with the Product Managers and Product Owners about the work they can reasonably accomplish.
