Drive consistency and efficiency by scaling agile practices across all levels, from teams to the entire product portfolio.
Agile teams are still siloed, and missing delivering value to stakeholders and constituents
As government agencies begin their Agile journey, they often start at the team level with their separate best practices and dispersed task management or legacy project tools. At some point, these Agile teams become siloed, delivering only features after features that do not add value to the stakeholders and constituents.
Critical events happen and may require a change in the agency's direction. Not having an Agile portfolio strategy to prioritize application development to support the respective changes can cause significant issues for the constituents.
Applications are becoming more complex due to the mixed technological environments found in most government agencies (From Legacy to Cloud to IoT). Lacking a consistent Agile approach and tool to orchestrate hundreds of developers can cause inconsistency, failure in mapping dependencies, and pipeline bottlenecks.
Government leaders and teams lack visibility and predictability in the application delivery lifecycle. This deficiency prevents data-driven decisions and makes it difficult to focus on delivering the agency's commitments.
Challenges
- Inconsistent and inefficient planning across teams makes it hard to scale
- Lack of visibility makes it harder to make data-driven decisions
- Invisible dependencies put schedules at risk
- Application sprawl, causing failure in hand-offs, complexity and high cost to maintain
- Team-level Agile tools don’t scale to large, complicated projects and portfolios

The Agility product provides the capabilities that enable government agencies to scale Agile beyond team-level and across the entire organization, supporting frameworks that include SAFe®, Scrum of Scrums, Spotify, Discipline Agile, and more.
