SAFE LEAN PORTFOLIO MANAGMENT (LPM)
STUDY CARDS LATEST EXAM 2025-2026
WITH ACTUAL QUESTIONS AND CORRECT
VERIFIED ANSWERS
Why Lean Portfolio Managment?
Ans: * The LPM function governs each SAFe portfolio
* It provides three essential collaborations to realize its
responsibilities:
(1) Strategy and investment funding
(2) Agile portfolio operations
(3) Lean governance
Q: What does the LPM competency do?
Ans: * Aligns strategy with execution
* Ensures system thinking approaches to strategy and investment
funding, Agile portfolio operations, and governance.
,Q: What are the four areas within Value and Leadership
of the SAFe House of Lean
Ans: * Respect for people and culture
* Flow
* Innovation
* Relentless improvement
Q: The Agile Manifesto values the following:
Ans: * Individuals and interactions
* Working softward
* Customer collaboration
* Relentless improvement
Q: Top 5 Agile Principles to LPM
,Ans: (1) Take an economic view
(5) Base milestones on objecvite evaluation of working systems
(6) Visualize and limit WIP, reduce batch sizes, and manage
queue lengths
(9) Decentralize decision-making
(1) Organize around value
Q: Principle #1: Take an economic view
Ans: * Deliver early and often
* Operate within Lean Budgets and Guardrails
* Undertand economic trade-offs for solutions
* Leverage suppliers
* Sequence jobs (Epics) for maximum benefit
* Empower local decision-making
, Q: Principle #5: Base milestones on objective evaluation
of working systems
Ans: Program Increment (PI) System Demos are orchestrated to
deliver objective progress, product, and process Metrics.
* Build the system in increments, each which is an integration point
that demonstrates evidence of the solution feasiblity.
* Milestones based on objective evaluation of working systems.
Q: Principle #6: Visualize and limit WIP
Ans: Three keys to implementing coninuous flow of value:
* Visualize and limit the amount of WIP to match demand to actual
capacity
* Reduce the batch sizes of work. Smaller batches go through the
system faster and with lower variability.
* Manage queue lengths to decrease delays, reduce wate, and
improve predictability of outcomes.
