The Mikado Method fits inside other processes, e.g Scrum, and you can use it several times within one sprint for example. In other words, you use it in conjunction with other process.
As a side note: You can use the Mikado Method for restructuring software but you can use it to guide development of new features as well. I do that a lot too.
It offers several benefits, one of the more compelling from a team process perspective is the visual 'map' you get. That can be used to sync teams over time and space.
