You are managing a project where the design phase follows a predictive approach with detailed upfront planning, but the implementation phase uses Scrum. The design phase has just completed, and you are transitioning to implementation. Several team members who worked on design are asking how they will track progress now. What should you explain to them?

Question

Accepted Answer

The correct answer is A. When transitioning between methodologies in a hybrid project, it's important to help team members understand how practices differ (ECO Process Task 1.13). Agile approaches use empirical progress measures like working software and burndown charts rather than predictive task completion metrics. Option B doesn't recognize the fundamental differences between methodologies and would impose inappropriate predictive controls on agile work. Option C is incorrect because progress is still tracked, just differently. Option D misunderstands agile transparency principles, which require frequent inspection of progress throughout each sprint, not just at release boundaries.
