- 11. SAFe ® Core Values 11 Four Values of the Agile Manifesto Individuals and Interactions Over Processes and Tools Working Software Over Comprehensive Documentation Responding to Change Over Following a Plan Customer Collaboration Over Contract Negotiation SAFe Core Values Alignment – Global alignment delivers more value than local optimization Built-in Quality –Large systems have more economic sensitivity to quality than do the features and subsystems that define them. Transparency – Large-scale solution development is difficult; things do not always work out as planned. Program Execution – The ability of each Agile Release Train to routinely and predictably deliver value is a hallmark of a successful SAFe implementation. 3/22/17 - Agile Project Management Using Scrum -
- 12. SAFe ® Lean-Agile Principles 12 1. Take an economic view 2. Apply systems thinking 3.Assume variability 4. Build incrementally with fast, integrated learning cycles 5. Base milestones on objective evaluation of working systems 6. Visualize and limit 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 3/22/17 - Agile Project Management Using Scrum -

Issues: •Separate tracks bogged down the process • Long release cycles – 3 months • Late closure on requirements documents • Missed delivery dates • Late integration cycles resulting in quality issues • Long team hours to reduce the schedule slippage * Source: Case Study from Scales Agile, http://www.scaledagileframework.com/cisco-case-study/ 163/22/17 - Agile Project Management Using Scrum -
- 17. SAFe ® Case Study – Cisco* The Solution • Launched three Agile Release Trains (ARTs) in 2015 –capabilities, defects and fixes, and projects • Teams worked together – built and tested small features within on SaaS+ component; regularly delivered tested features to the system integration and testing team • Team met for 15 minutes every day and determined action items *Source: Case Study from Scales Agile, http://www.scaledagileframework.com/cisco-case-study/ + SaaS – Software as a service – software licensing and delivery in which software is licensed on a subscription basis and is centrally hosted. 173/22/17 - Agile Project Management Using Scrum -

- 20. Is SAFe ® too safe? Criticisms: • SAFe® isn’t really pure Agile - SAFe® lacks the flexibilitythat is practically the essence of Agile • SAFe® is generally regarded as a too cautious way of implementing Agile in large enterprises • Not as good as implementing true Agile Source: https://intland.com/blog/agile/safe/facing-criticism-is-safe- the-fast-food-of-agile/ Realities: • Implementing strict Scrum + XP with no standardized approach has brought problems to larger organizations forcing them to take a new approach with SAFe® • SAFe® allos large enterprises to take advantage of a framework and also reap some advantages of Agile, hopefully towards a journey of true Agility. 203/22/17 - Agile Project Management Using Scrum -

Synchronizes with PI Planning 4 All stakeholders face-to-face (but typically multiple locations) 4 Management sets the mission, with minimum possible constraints 4Requirements and design emerge 4 Important stakeholder decisions are accelerated 4 Teams create—and take responsibility for—plans Future product development tasks can’t be pre-determined. Distribute planning and control to those who can understand and react to the end results. — Michael Kennedy, Product Development for the Lean Enterprise For a short video PI planning example, see: https://youtu.be/ZZAtl7nAB1M 3/22/17 - Agile Project Management Using Scrum -
