What is Scaled Agile Framework SAFe?

Scaled Agile Framework is widely used in organizations. In this video, I want to answer the question, ‘What is Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe)?’ Scaled Agile Framework gives organizations a structured approach for scaling their agile practice. SAFe offers four configurations at different scales: • Essential SAFe The level of a single team, project, or program • Large Solution SAFe Multi-project or multi-program level, without portfolio management tools • Portfolio SAFe Adds in concerns for governance, strategy, and value • Full SAFe Integrates the three levels together in a single framework SAFe has a set of 10 principles: 1. Take an economic view 2. Apply systems thinking 3. Assume variability; preserve options 4. Build incrementally with fast, integrated learning cycles 5. Base milestones on objective evaluation of working systems 6. Visualize and limit Work in Process (WIP), reduce batch sizes, and manage queue lengths 7. Apply cadence, synchronize with cross-domain planning 8. Unlock the intrinsic motivation of knowledge workers 9. Decentralize decision making 10. Organize around value Recommended Videos Carefully curated video recommendations for you: 🎬 What is Disciplined Agile (DA)? https://youtu.be/C_WW3u8Dy90 🎬 What is the PMI-ACP?
