Scaled Agile SAFe Implementation Playbook for Seni
Your agile transformation is underway but results are inconsistent. Teams operate at different maturity levels, PI Planning feels mechanical rather than valuable, and leadership cannot see the connection between agile practices and business outcomes.
Agile transformation consulting runs $250 to $600 per hour. A full SAFe implementation costs $200,000 to $500,000. This playbook delivers the same structured methodology for a fraction of that investment.
WHAT IS INSIDE: 141 PROFESSIONAL FILES
This is not a course, not a workbook, not a set of slides. This is 141 practitioner-grade tools (6 PDFs + 58 Excel workbooks) organised across 11 folders, built for professionals who need to implement, not just learn.
THREE-PHASE IMPLEMENTATION JOURNEY
Phase 1 – Get your bearings (02_Self_Assessment_and_Diagnostics): Start with the Quick Scan diagnostic PDF for a fast executive-level overview. Then work through the RDMAICS Scoring Dashboard and Maturity Radar to understand exactly where you are across all 7 domains. No guesswork, just data.
Phase 2 – Set concrete goals (03_Requirements_and_Goal_Setting): Use the Project Charter and Scope Statement to lock in what success looks like. The RACI Matrix and Requirements Traceability Matrix ensure every stakeholder knows their role and every requirement is tracked to completion.
Phase 3 – Implement, track, and sustain (05_Project_Management_Forms onwards): Work through a comprehensive library of PM form templates covering all five PMBOK process groups: Initiating, Planning, Executing, Monitoring and Controlling, and Closing. Every template is pre-configured for immediate use.
