Azure Delivery Plans is a feature of Azure DevOps that provides a consolidated view of work items across multiple teams and projects. It’s particularly useful for teams practicing Agile methodologies or for organizations with multiple teams working on different parts of a larger project. Here’s an overview of what Azure Delivery Plans offer:

1. Cross-Team Visibility: Delivery Plans allow you to view work items from multiple teams in a single, unified view. This is especially useful for tracking the progress of large projects that span multiple teams.

2. Timeline View: It provides a timeline view of the work, making it easy to understand when different pieces of the project are scheduled to be delivered.

3. Customizable Views: You can customize the view to focus on specific teams, iterations, and work item types. This helps in focusing on the most relevant pieces of information for your needs.

4. Drag-and-Drop Interface: The interface allows for easy adjustments. You can drag and drop work items to different iterations or change their order to reflect priority changes.

5. Overlapping Iterations: Delivery Plans handle overlapping iterations, which is a common scenario in large projects with multiple teams. This allows for better coordination and planning.

6. Tracking Dependencies: You can track dependencies across teams. This is critical for ensuring that deliverables are aligned and that dependencies are clearly understood and managed.

7. Integration with Azure Boards: Delivery Plans is an extension of Azure Boards, ensuring seamless integration with existing workflows and data.

8. Access Control: You can control who has access to the Delivery Plan to ensure that sensitive project information is only visible to the relevant stakeholders.

To use Azure Delivery Plans, you need to have Azure DevOps and access to Azure Boards where your project work items are managed. Setting up a Delivery Plan involves selecting the teams and backlogs you want to include and configuring the timeline and iteration paths for those teams. The feature is particularly beneficial for project managers, scrum masters, and team leads who need to oversee the progress and coordination of multiple teams.
