5. SAFe – Scaled Agile Framework
Scaled
Essential, large,
portfolio, and
full implementation
Agile
based on the Agile
Manifesto and agile
principles
Framework
Comprehensive
knowledge base of
proven, integrated
principles, practices, and
competencies for Lean,
Agile, and DevOps
The lower-case “e” at the end turns SAF into SAFe. SAF + “e” is safe to do.
SAFe adds a level of safety by lowering risk.

7. The Agile Manifesto
We are uncovering better ways of developing software by doing it and helping others do it.
Through this work we have come to value:
Individuals and interactions over processes and tools
Working software over comprehensive documentation
Customer collaboration over contract negotiation
Responding to change over following a plan
That is, while there is value in the items on the right, we value the items on the left more.
