A project team is developing a software product whose requirements are expected to evolve throughout the project. They choose an adaptive life-cycle. Which tracking practice demonstrates the main advantage of adaptive project tracking in this situation?
Developing a complete work breakdown structure upfront and rejecting change requests that exceed the approved scope baseline.
Locking the baseline schedule after detailed planning and measuring schedule variance only at monthly status reviews.
Collecting earned value data only at major phase gates to minimize reporting effort.
Reviewing the sprint burndown at the daily stand-up and re-prioritizing backlog items based on stakeholder feedback.
Adaptive tracking uses short, frequent feedback loops-such as daily stand-ups and burndown charts-to inspect progress and immediately adjust backlog priorities based on stakeholder input. This enables the team to incorporate emerging requirements quickly. Predictive tracking, by contrast, measures performance against a fixed scope and schedule baseline; changes are introduced only through formal change control gates, making quick adaptation more difficult.
