Introducing: SAFe with Atlassian Software

No matter what approach you take to agile scaling, we are here to help you

The Scaled Agile Framework, abbreviated SAFe, is a framework that uses various methods and principles to establish more agility in companies. Companies that are already successfully using SAFe report a significant increase in productivity, shorter time-to-market, and improved employee engagement.

The idea for SAFe was determined from the fact that Scrum reaches its limits with a large number of teams. Scrum is a very efficient method for small agile teams but lacks an overarching structure. With the increasing desire of large companies to become more agile, new elements are constantly being discovered and incorporated into development during the use of SAFe.

SAFe actively contributes to an agile mindset. As important as an agile transformation is, it is not very successful if it is implemented ad hock. We therefore recommend starting with a hybrid project management. Before the advantages of SAFe can be used, organizations must adopt a Lean-Agile mindset and understand and apply the Lean-Agile principles. We help you to identify Value Streams and Agile Release Trains (ARTs), to implement a Lean-Agile portfolio, and to incorporate quality assurance. In addition, we work with you to establish mechanisms for continuous value delivery and DevOps.

Our certified Atlassian consultants are happy to guide you through your agile transformation. No matter which approach you would like to take in agile scaling we will guide you through the implementation and advise you on key approaches and the right strategy for your business. The foundation for the implementation of SAFe is formed by the Atlassian tools. To a certain extent, SAFe can also be implemented in Jira software, but for enterprise-wide scaling there is no way around JiraAlign.

Jira Align is a solution that enables management to link product development to business results without disrupting the work of agile teams. With numerous built-in features, Jira Algin helps increase the efficiency of your transformation. At the same time, the tool enables you to overcome the barriers between portfolio management, product management and development. This allows all areas of the organization to work together more agilely and thus more efficiently. In addition, Jira Align supports all scaling agile principles such as SAFe or LeSS. This makes it easier to align all your teams on agile development practices.

Using Jira Align is ideal for you if you want to solve the complexity of Agile at scale. If you want to be able to link business goals across the organization with a unified view of each portfolio, product, or project, Jira Align is an indispensable tool. If you already have multiple instances of Jira Software, Azure DevOps, or other planning tools, there's no way around Jira Align!
