## 5.2 Daily Stand-up The daily routine of a project following agile values and principles relies on communication as a fundamental aspect. The supporting principles of PM2-Agile make it quite clear that without proper communication, any project will be deemed to fail. To avoid such a scenario, PM2-Agile recommends creating a mechanism to keep the Agile Project Core Team (A-PCT) aligned towards its iteration goal and identifying potential obstacles. In PM2-Agile, this mechanism is known as the Daily Stand-up. During this ceremony, the Agile Team Members (ATeM) check the heartbeat of the project and getting individual commitments from each other until the next checkpoint (usually, twenty-four hours). The Daily Stand-up is neither a status update meeting nor a problem-solving meeting. Issues raised are registered and discussed by the relevant team members immediately after the meeting. ### [[5.2.1 Frequency and Duration]] ### [[5.2.2 The Structure of a Daily Stand-up]] ### [[5.2.3 Guidelines and participants]]
