Agile Hive and the Future of Enterprise Agility
Enterprise agility is evolving beyond speed of delivery to embrace strategy alignment, value stream flow, and evidence-based decision-making. The Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe®) provides the operating model for large organizations to navigate this shift, and Agile Hive brings it to life inside Atlassian Jira. By connecting strategy to execution and making flow visible at every level, Agile Hive helps organizations deliver meaningful outcomes with clarity and confidence.
How Agile Hive Streamlines SAFe® in Jira
Implementing the Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe®) inside Atlassian Jira can be challenging. Agile Hive changes that. Purpose-built to bring SAFe to life in Jira, Agile Hive provides preconfigured structures, PI planning boards, dependency management, and reporting dashboards—all seamlessly integrated into the Jira environment teams already know.
Key SAFe® Roles Explained – And How Agile Hive Helps You Manage Them
Discover the key roles in the Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe®) and their responsibilities across teams, programs, and portfolios, and how Agile Hive addresses the needs and responsibilities of each. Perfect for organizations of any size, and those enterprises scaling agile.
5 Best Practices For PI Planning In Agile Hive
There are a handful of frameworks available for scaling agile. In Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe®) , Program Increment, or PI Planning stands as a crucial event. It marks the beginning of a new development cycle, bringing together various teams to align their work with strategic goals. Agile Hive, the “SAFe® in Jira” solution, offers a comprehensive solution for streamlining this complex process. In this article, we will explore how to effectively plan a PI using Agile Hive, highlighting key strategies, benefits, and practical tips.
Using Acceptance Criteria
It’s the “what”, not the “how”. That in a nutshell explains acceptance criteria; scenarios that need to be met so that a product, service, increment, or user story will be accepted and considered complete. Essentially they are conditions akin to pass or fail, on or off, black or white, there is no gray area. Within the realm of Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe®), acceptance criteria are part of each capability, feature, or story to be delivered by a single Agile Release Train (ART) with a Planning Interval (PI).
How Agile Hive Can Support SAFe® Certifications
For those looking to take their knowledge of Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe®) to the next level, the organization offers a variety of classes that verify successful completion on SAFe®-specific topics. This article focuses on the “SAFe® for Teams” certification, in particular how Agile Hive can play a part as an integral teaching tool for it.
Adopting SAFe® in Small Steps
Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe®) takes Agile and Lean principles and implements them at an enterprise or large organization level to increase and drive efficiencies, meet the requirements of stakeholders, and improve customer satisfaction. However, it’s not just supersizing established practices that worked at the team level, there’s an ART (pun intended) to it. This article explores the benefits and processes of making the transition via smaller steps rather than one giant leap.
Tips To Make Your ART Launch A Success
Your organization’s SAFe® implementation is full steam ahead, or at least, headed in the right direction. Pulling off your first Agile Release Train (ART) successfully is a critical step in demonstrating to all involved that this new way of working will improve efficiencies, shorten release cycles, and increase overall transparency from one end of the organization to the other. Our article walks you through a step-by-step process in this critical phase of your SAFe® journey.
