Large Solution SAFe
Scaling agile methods for large solutions and enterprises
Request demo
Organizations often face the challenge of managing complex, enterprise-wide tasks that require the application of Agile principles to large solutions. Their development is typically beyond the scope of a single Agile Release Train (ART). Building these solutions requires additional roles, artifacts, events, and increased coordination efforts.
The cplace Solution Template Large Solution SAFe enables the agile implementation and management of large products according to the methods of the Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe). It enables companies to develop high quality solutions in parallel on a large scale and to deliver them on demand. The agile values of alignment and transparency are optimally promoted through efficient coordination of all tasks and shortest company-wide communication channels. This prevents the formation of silos, contributes to fast time-to-market, and creates competitive advantages over the competition.
