In an Agile project using the Scrum framework, who holds the ultimate accountability for managing the Product Backlog, which includes its content, availability, and ordering?
The Product Owner is solely accountable for effective Product Backlog management. This includes creating and clearly communicating Product Backlog items, ordering the items to best achieve goals, and ensuring the backlog is transparent and visible to all stakeholders. While the Scrum Master coaches the team and facilitates Scrum events, and the Developers perform the work, the ultimate accountability for the Product Backlog lies with the Product Owner. The Project Sponsor is a key stakeholder but is not responsible for the day-to-day management of the Product Backlog in Scrum.
