What is SAFe?

A framework for scaling agile across the enterprise

SAFe stands for Scaled Agile Framework. It is a framework designed to scale agile practices across the entire enterprise by coordinating multiple agile teams into a structured system with defined roles, events, and artifacts. It introduces Agile Release Trains, where a set of teams align on a shared program cadence, typically delivering end-to-end value every 8–12 weeks and planning together in PI (Program Increment) planning sessions. Work is organized across levels—team, program, portfolio, and, in larger configurations, large solution—so strategy and investment funding align with development. The framework provides guidance on roles like Release Train Engineer, Product Management, and System Architecture, along with practices for architecture, DevOps, governance, budgeting, and continuous improvement. It’s not a set of coding standards, nor a simple project management method, nor a test automation tool; it’s a comprehensive approach to coordinating agile at scale across large, multi-team initiatives.
