SAFe, or the Scaled Agile Framework, is a set of organization and workflow patterns intended to guide enterprises in scaling lean and agile practices. SAFe combines principles from Agile, lean manufacturing, and product development in a template that can be applied to various industries and complexities, supporting large teams, complex projects, and entire enterprises. It is especially effective for managing dependencies and alignment across multiple agile teams, promoting alignment, collaboration, and delivery across large numbers of agile teams.
SAFe provides structured guidance on roles and responsibilities, planning and managing work, and delivering value at scale. Its comprehensive approach helps organizations maintain quality and efficiency, even as they scale up their operations to meet growing business demands and ensure consistent and sustained delivery of value to customers.
