Modern government demands modern ways of working. Government agencies around the world are under growing pressure to streamline operations. Rising citizen expectations, complex compliance requirements, and rapidly advancing technology demand new approaches to delivering value efficiently, transparently, and at scale. Traditional mindsets and practices can no longer keep pace with the speed of change.
The key to meeting these demands is embracing agility at every level of the public enterprise. So, Scaled Agile is doubling down on our commitment to help government organizations everywhere do just that.
Our Commitment to Government Modernization
We have long partnered with public sector organizations to enable Lean-Agile practices at scale. But we know the journey to agility in government is unique. We’re expanding our focus to ensure government organizations can leverage SAFe to improve citizen and user satisfaction, increase their responsiveness to change, and deliver effective solutions frequently. This expanded focus includes:
- Government-tuned Framework guidance and terminology
- Tailored learning products and tools
- Comprehensive enablement programs
- Dedicated support from our team of Government experts
Many government organizations that have embraced SAFe have seen significant benefits. Our expanded investments in the public sector will pave the way for many more.
