Velocity is a team-specific, relative measure of work done in a sprint and should not be used to compare teams. The PMI Agile Practice Guide (Section 5.4: Estimation and Velocity) and Mike Griffiths’ PMI-ACP Exam Prep Book (Chapter 6: Adaptive Planning) highlight that a consistent and predictable velocity is more valuable than simply trying to exceed estimates, which can lead to overcommitment or burnout.
Option C is correct: predictability and consistency are hallmarks of agile maturity.
Option A and B falsely equate velocity across teams.
Option D values overperformance, which may undermine sustainable pace.
