Scaled Agile Framework
Structured transformation from waterfall to scaled agile product development
In this digital age, organizations are required to deliver competitive solutions. But responding quickly to market demand and technological innovation remains a challenge. Therefore, more and more companies are switching from a traditional waterfall approach to an agile approach for their product development.
The Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe) provides a framework for scaling agile/scrum to larger organizations where multiple teams or teams of teams work together at a fixed cadence.
Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe)
The Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe) is the fastest growing approach to implement agile at scale. SAFe applies the power of agile and combines it with the knowledge of systems thinking and lean product development. SAFe is a collection of various methods that are successfully applied in business. The basis of SAFe is to organize good cooperation between agile teams. These teams work transparently with a clear focus on value, which makes it clear where problems are and where progress is made. The teams learn to monitor the quality themselves, rather than develop first and test afterwards. By applying all this, a well-running ‘factory’ is created that realizes the development work.
SAFe training courses
An important part of any transformation to SAFe is training people so they are ready for their new role in the SAFe organization. Synergio is a partner of Scaled Agile, the creator of the Scaled Agile Framework SAFe. We are happy to help you build knowledge about SAFe.
