SAFE Methodology, often referred to simply as SAFe (Scaled Agile Framework), is a set of principles and practices designed to help organizations scale agile practices across multiple teams and departments. It provides a structured approach to implementing agile at an enterprise level, enabling organizations to adapt to market changes, deliver value more rapidly, and improve collaboration among teams.
SAFe emphasizes alignment, flexibility, and transparency, facilitating better decision-making and governance. It incorporates various roles, responsibilities, and activities that guide teams in planning, executing, and delivering work in an incremental and iterative manner. By integrating aspects of agile, lean, and product development flow, SAFe aims to create a cohesive framework that supports enterprise agility, fostering an environment where organizations can effectively manage complex projects and products.
The framework is often depicted in a layered structure, where distinct levels (such as Team, Program, Large Solution, and Portfolio) outline the organization of teams and their interactions with larger strategic goals. This hierarchical approach helps ensure that all parts of the organization are aligned with the overall vision and that customer feedback is integrated throughout the development process.
