SAFe (Scaled Agile Framework)

Today, customers expect instant access to information and services. Budget pressures. Security threats. Internal silos. Each of these factors is a challenge to the efficiency and effectiveness of aligning people, processes, and technology throughout an organization. Success depends on teams’ ability to release on demand overcoming the unique needs of our government partners—delivering high-quality solutions and value to customers at the right time. DevOps—which is all about aligning people on common objectives and processes optimized for speed and stability—was born from a people problem. 

According to the Government Accounting Office (GAO) SAFe for Government is a set of success patterns that help public sector organizations implement Lean-Agile practices in a government context. The foundations of Lean and Agile thinking have led to higher success rates versus waterfall methods in software and systems development in the private sector. Agile software development has been adopted by many federal agencies.
SAFe takes software and processes and thinks big across embedded systems, ERP systems, systems modernization and transformations, and more. KGS provides SAFe-certified Subject Matter Experts and Training Services to our SAFe customers.
