Ship Deliverables

This process transfers accepted deliverables to the appropriate business stakeholders and completes their move into operational use. A formal Working Deliverables Agreement serves as evidence that the sprint has been successfully closed.

Key Points

  • Happens after deliverables have been accepted against agreed acceptance criteria.
  • Focuses on handing off to business stakeholders, including any release, training, and documentation needed for use.
  • The Working Deliverables Agreement formally confirms successful sprint completion and stakeholder receipt.
  • Establishes ownership and support arrangements for the shipped items going forward.

Example

After a sprint, the team finishes and gets acceptance for a new reporting dashboard. The project manager coordinates deployment to the client environment, provides the user guide and brief training, and obtains a signed Working Deliverables Agreement from the product owner and operations lead to confirm the sprint is complete.

PMP Example Question

At the end of a sprint, all user stories are accepted. What should the project manager do next to formally close delivery for the sprint?

  1. Start planning the next sprint and update the team velocity.
  2. Ship the accepted deliverables to business stakeholders and obtain the Working Deliverables Agreement.
  3. Conduct only the sprint retrospective to capture lessons learned.
  4. Re-estimate the product backlog for future releases.

Correct Answer: B — Ship the accepted deliverables and document completion with the Working Deliverables Agreement

Explanation: Shipping accepted deliverables and securing the formal agreement confirms stakeholder receipt and marks the sprint as successfully completed.
