MS Release Management Powershell DSC Downstream Builds

I am using TFS2013 & MS Release Management vNext to provide some continuous deployment capability to the development team, but am struggling to find a feature (or a way of achieving the capability) related to downstream (or chained) builds.

What I would like to achieve is the ability to start another build upon successfully completing another.

The basic premise behind this is we would sometimes have services that need to be deployed before a web application is subsequently deployed, but not in all cases (otherwise the build itself would simply deploy all of these components every single time) - in 80% of cases the web application will be deployed in isolation.

Has anyone achieved this in any other way than custom TFS build templates? Is there actually an un-documented feature somewhere in MS RM?

Thanks for your time in advance

If i understand correctly then you want to deploy to an environment based on some pre-condition being met. There is a nice story for that with new release management pipeline see the video below https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OPuWRL4jORQ
