The INSPECT and Adapt process is important throughout the Sprint but especially during the ceremonies:

• Sprint Planning – During Sprint Planning it is important to Inspect:
  • The comments from the previous Sprint Review to ascertain if any remedial work is needed and Adapt the EXPECTED velocity if needed
  • The Risk Log to determine if any significant mitigation actions are required for HIGH risks in the Sprint and Adapt the expected velocity if needed
• Daily Scrum – During the Daily Scrum it is important to Inspect the progress toward the Sprint Goal and if there are any concerns about the progress, consideration must be GIVEN to Adapting the current priorities, task assignments and/or work practices
• Scrum Review – During the Scrum Review it is important to Inspect:
  • The increment produced to discover if any Adaptations (changes) are required and the priority of those Adaptations
  • The Product Backlog to determine if it needs to be Adapted in the light of any NEW PBI required, any PBI that can be removed and any reprioritization required
  • The Release Plan to determine whether it needs to be Adapted considering the experience gained so far during the Release development period
• Scrum Retrospective – During the Scrum Retrospective it is important that the team Inspect:
  • What had gone well during the Sprint
  • What had not gone well during the Sprint

The results of these Inspections should lead the team in considering the Adaption of the process that they followed
