Organize around value
Manage SAFe at the portfolio, program, and solution levels in Aha! Roadmaps. Use kanban systems to capture the strategic themes and capabilities needed to deliver impactful solutions. Score features based on Weighted Shortest Job First before assigning them to PIs in Aha! Develop. This enables you to optimize your value stream all the way from strategy to execution.
Synchronize agile release trains
Structure your Aha! Develop account to match your SAFe configuration. Add as many engineering teams as you need and group them within agile release trains. Now, you can ensure everyone can work together to build, deploy, and maintain solutions in a synchronized way — while giving each team a dedicated space of its own.
Define PIs
Create PIs to automatically schedule sprints across teams. Fill in key details — including the date range, sprint cadence, and PI objectives. Link each PI to strategic themes in Aha! Roadmaps and add related features. This gives everyone visibility into the overall strategy and shows how you will achieve the portfolio vision.
Streamline PI planning
Review the PI backlog. Define the requirements for each feature in detail, estimating effort and identifying cross-team dependencies. Technical leads can then allocate work to each team by moving items into upcoming sprints. Calculate overall PI capacity based on underlying sprint capacity to optimize the team's workload.
Visualize delivery progress
Track PI progress on one view. See a breakdown of sprint performance by team and monitor each feature's status. Quickly surface risks, analyzing sprint details to understand exactly what is happening and where the team needs help. Over in Aha! Roadmaps, product management can report on features by PI to see how work is progressing.
