Iteration Goals in SAFe are a high-level summary of the business and technical goals that an Agile Team agrees to accomplish in an Iteration. They are essential for coordinating an Agile Release Train (ART) as a self-organizing, self-managing team of teams. The primary benefits of Iteration Goals include aligning team members to a common purpose and aligning teams to common PI Objectives while managing dependencies. They provide Agile Teams, ART stakeholders, and management with a shared language for maintaining alignment, managing dependencies, and making necessary adjustments during the execution of the Planning Interval1. These goals apply to teams whether they use SAFe Scrum, SAFe Team Kanban, or a hybrid of both. By setting Iteration Goals, teams can ensure that they are working towards the same objectives and can adjust their efforts as needed to stay on track with the overall goals of the ART1.
