### Overview Gather all iteration team members and review the iteration plans including budget, schedule, backlog, resources, roles and responsibilities, and communication plan. The objective of the review is to gain consensus that the iteration plan is acceptable to the project and worthy of presentation to the integrated program management (IPM) office. # Entry Criteria Proposed Iteration Backlog The proposed list of work items for the iteration. Communication Plan The iteration communication plan. Iteration Resource Request The requested personnel, facilities, and equipment for the iteration. Budget The proposed iteration budget. Schedule The proposed iteration schedule. # Sub-Activities
1 | Publish Iteration Plans for Review | Publish the iteration plans on the project portal.
2 | Schedule Review | Invite all team members and schedule a time in the near future for review.
3 | Hold Review | Reviews are always best held in face-to-face meetings, but this is not always possible. In which case, hold a teleconference, net meeting, or video conference. The project manager should present the plans. Review comments should be recorded. Small changes should be made immediately; larger changes may require the project manager to rework the plan before presenting it again to the team.
4 | Agree Consensus | Form a consensus around the state of the iteration plans. (1) Agreed as is. Take the plan to the IPMO. (2) Agreed with changes. The project manager will rework the plan with the agreed upon changes and take it to the IPMO. No further internal review required. (3) Rework and present again. The project manager will rework the plan and present it again for the team's consideration.
# Exit Criteria
| Iteration plan aggregating the proposed backlog, budget, schedule, resource request, organization chart, and communication plan.
