The document presents an overview of the Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe), which is a structured approach designed to implement Agile principles at an enterprise scale. It covers the importance of etiquette during sessions, key components of Agile methodology, and the various configurations of SAFe, including Essential Safe, Large Solution Safe, and Portfolio Safe. The framework combines Agile practices with lean principles to enhance project management and deliver value efficiently across organizations.

4. What is Agile Methodology?
Agile is an iterative approach to project management and software development where it
breaks down large and complex projects into smaller parts that are more manageable. That
helps teams deliver value to their customers faster. An agile team delivers work in small, but
consumable, increments.

More than 1,000,000 individuals in 20,000 companies around the world have acknowledged the
benefits of scaling agile with SAFe. Aggregated customer case studies have shown the following
typical results

7. Introduction to Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe)
Scaled Agile Framework, also known as SAFe, is an enterprise-scale development framework. It uses
a combination of existing lean and agile principles and combines them into a templated framework
for large-scale projects.
● Originally called “Agile Enterprise Big Picture”, SAFe was released by methodologist Dean
Leffingwell in 2011.
● Designed to help business continuously, and more efficient deliver value on a regular and
predictable schedule.
● SAFe was formed around three primary bodies of knowledge: agile software development, lean
product development, and systems thinking.

12. Essential SAFe
Essential SAFe is the smallest configuration of the SAFe methodology, designed to support smaller
organizations with up to 50-125 practitioners.
