While SAFe (Scaled Agile Framework) is our preferred model due to its robust guidance on scaling Agile practices across large organizations, we are skilled in multiple frameworks and can tailor solutions based on an organization’s specific needs and objectives. Below is a summary of Agile models we may consider, depending on organizational context and desired outcomes:
- SAFe (Scaled Agile Framework): Designed for larger organizations, SAFe coordinates multiple Agile teams, aligns them with business objectives, and manages dependencies effectively at scale, making it ideal for enterprises seeking cohesive, scaled Agile practices.
- Scrum: A foundational Agile framework, Scrum emphasizes iterative development and teamwork. Its lightweight structure provides a strong starting point for organizations new to Agile.
- Kanban: Ideal for managing continuous work, Kanban focuses on visualizing workflows, optimizing flow, and limiting work in progress. It’s especially beneficial for operations with ongoing work rather than fixed iterations.
- LeSS (Large Scale Scrum): LeSS scales Scrum practices across multiple teams, promoting simplicity and customer-centricity. It’s well-suited for organizations looking to extend Scrum with a focus on transparency and collaboration.
- Agile Transformation Framework (ATF): Specifically designed to support Agile transformations, ATF offers a structured approach to assess current states, set target goals, and implement incremental changes.
- Disciplined Agile (DA): DA combines Agile, Lean, and DevOps practices into a flexible toolkit, allowing organizations to choose and adapt practices based on their unique needs and environment.
- Agile Fluency Model: This model describes a progression of Agile fluency, guiding teams to move from initial Agile practices to more advanced techniques over time, focusing on delivering value and mastering Agile methods.
- Lean Startup: Though not strictly an Agile framework, Lean Startup principles encourage rapid iteration, product-market fit validation, and reduced time-to-market, supporting agility in product development cycles.
- Agile Manifesto and Principles: These foundational values provide guidance for embracing Agile philosophies and can serve as a grounding philosophy to inform specific Agile practices.
- Cynefin Framework: While not strictly Agile, Cynefin helps organizations identify problem types and choose fitting strategies, supporting Agile teams in addressing complex and changing problems effectively.
Tailored Approach for Each Organization
Pragmatic Business Services recognizes that each organization has unique cultural, structural, and strategic needs. Our approach involves selecting or combining elements from these frameworks to best fit the organization’s objectives. Often, the most effective Agile transformations result from blending models to create a customized strategy that aligns with the organization's goals, promotes sustainable change, and maximizes agility and innovation across all levels.
With a focus on practical application and measurable results, we empower leaders and teams to embrace agility, continuously improve, and remain competitive in an ever-evolving market.
