The document discusses using Kanban techniques to help prepare user stories for Scrum sprints. It suggests using a Kanban board to track the progress of stories through stages like user input, interfaces, team input, and writing specifications, before they are ready for a sprint. The Kanban board aims to help the product owner analyze and ready the stories for development teams to work on and complete within a sprint, improving delivery velocity.
