#scaledagile #leanagile #SAFepricinples #whatisSAFe
#SAFe is based on ten #fundamental concepts that have evolved from #Agileprinciples and methods, #Leanproduct #development, systems thinking, and observation of successful #enterprises. Each is described in detail in an article by that #principle’s name.
In addition, the embodiment of the #principles appears throughout the #Framework. They are summarized in the following sections, and each has a full article behind the link.
#1 – Take an #economic view: Delivering the ‘best #value and #quality for people and society in the shortest sustainable lead time’ requires a #fundamental understanding of the #economics of building systems. Everyday decisions must be made in a proper economic context. This includes the #strategy for #incremental #valuedelivery and the broader #economicframework for each #valuestream.
#2 – Apply systems thinking
Deming observed that addressing the #challenges in the #workplace and the #marketplace requires an #understanding of the #systems within which workers and users operate. Such systems are complex, and they consist of many interrelated components.
#3 – Assume variability; preserve options
Traditional design and life cycle #practices encourage choosing a single design-and-requirements option early in the #development process.
#Developingsolutions incrementally in a series of short iterations allows for faster #customerfeedback and mitigates risk.
#5 – Base milestones on the objective #evaluation of working systems
#Businessowners, #developers, and #customers have a shared responsibility to ensure that investment in new #solutions will deliver #economicbenefit.
#6 – Visualize and limit WIP, reduce batch sizes, and manage queue lengths
#Leanenterprises strive to achieve a state of continuous flow, where new #system capabilities move quickly and visibly from concept to cash. Keys to implementing flow are:
1. #Visualize and limit the amount of #workinprocess (#WIP). This increases throughput and limits demand to actual capacity.
2. Reduce the batch sizes of work to #facilitate fast and more reliable flow.
3. Manage queue lengths to reduce the wait times for new #functionality.
#7 – Apply cadence, #synchronize with cross-domain planning
Cadence creates predictability and provides a rhythm for #development. #Synchronization causes multiple perspectives to be understood, resolved and integrated at the same time.
#8 – Unlock the intrinsic #motivation of knowledge workers
#LeanAgile leaders understand that ideation, innovation, and employee engagement are not generally motivated by individual incentive compensation.
#9 – Decentralize decision-making
Achieving fast #valuedelivery requires decentralized decision-making. This reduces delays, #improves #productdevelopment flow, enables faster feedback, and creates more innovative #solutions designed by those closest to the local knowledge.
#10 – Organize around value
Many #enterprises today are #organized around principles developed during the last century. In the name of intended efficiency, most are #organized around functional expertise.
