Correct answer: D

Explanation

The Sixth Principle of SAFe 6.0 (Make Value Flow without interruptions) can best be achieved by adopting these eight Flow Accelerators:

  1. Visualize and Limit WIP

  2. Address Bottlenecks

  3. Minimize Handoffs and Dependencies

  4. Get Faster Feedback

  5. Work in Smaller Batches

  6. Reduce Queue Length

  7. Optimize Time 'In the Zone'

  8. Remediate Legacy Policies and Practices


Too much Work in Process (WIP) confuses priorities, causes frequent context switching and increases overhead. It overloads people, scatters focus on immediate tasks, reduces productivity and throughput, besides increasing wait times for new functionality.
