 Improvement will take many forms, such as how the Team works together, how they work with their customer, removing impediments they have to delivery, improving how they deploy work, and so on.
-One area you should encourage the Team to work is automating their deployment pipeline. If most of the Team’s deployment processes are currently manual there is a huge potential for return on investments made here, both in terms of freeing up capacity to do more value added work, and in terms of improving the reliability and quality of the deployment process preventing re-work.

 Even small investment can lead to big results. One Team recently invested one hour researching automation of a deployment process which lead to 78 hour saving for that process, or a 780% ROI. Further:
 > "In less time than it took to do the work once, they were able to implement automation, so they never have to do it again manually"
+While this idea is obvious for software Teams, it should be noted that it is also worth reviewing for non-software Teams. Ask "what is tooling we can bring in to enable use to provide this service better, faster, cheaper?"
 This is called "tactical automation." In particular you don't need to wait for the mega-automation project. Space to innovate, willingness to invest, and a little encouragement from you will produce this kind of result.
