It defines an idea that can be validated using the plan, do, check, and adjust cycle It is the artifact Epics use to get approval to go on the Portfolio Backlog from the Lean Portfolio Management It provides enough detail to run the business and keep long-term commitments from interfering with changing business priorities It helps define the pipeline with the assets and technologies needed to deliver solution value How frequently should the Program Backlog be reviewed?
