Whether the team estimates work using story points or simply tracks the number of Product Backlog items delivered per Sprint, they establish a natural cadence for what they can reliably complete. Instead of pushing a team beyond its capacity, support them in maintaining a sustainable pace.

Through our work at LeadingAgile, we’ve come to believe there are three core systems necessary to instantiate and sustain an Agile enterprise.

It’s usually based on a cadence. As shown in the above figure, there is no regular timeboxed iteration, but incremental delivery can happen in cadence. When Inaccurate Estimation Results in Delayed Delivery. Estimates are often inaccurate because they are made in absolute numbers. This is depicted in the below figure.
