Midway through Sprint 3 of a mobile banking app, the product owner asks the team to introduce biometric login, a capability that was not part of the original release plan but promises higher customer adoption. According to the Agile Manifesto, what is the most appropriate next step for the team?
Freeze the project scope for the remainder of the release to avoid further disruptions.
Escalate the change to the project management office and wait for formal change control approval before acting.
Collaboratively refine and reprioritize the product backlog with the product owner so the team can accommodate biometric login in upcoming sprints while evaluating scope and schedule impacts.
Decline the request and keep the current sprint backlog unchanged until the next release cycle.
The Manifesto values responding to change over following a plan. The team should collaborate with the product owner to refine and reprioritize the backlog so the feature can be delivered in a future sprint while transparently assessing impacts. Declining the request, freezing scope, or waiting on heavyweight change control contradict agile values of adaptability and customer value focus.
