So Pi planning happens during scrum of scrums

[@SAFeintheRealWorld]

You Scrum of Scrums is the ceremony that is used typically multiple times a week during PI Execution after PI Planning takes place. The purpose is to ensure that we are able to achieve our PI Goals and deliver our Features committed to during PI Planning. The Scrum of Scrums help us do this by discussing and assisting with management and co-ordination of cross team dependencies, raising impediments for resolution and making micro adjustments to achieve our objectives where necessary. Hope this helps.
