29 Information Sources for Today s Presentation 4/29/
30 SAFe Adoption Across Federal According to SAI, the Federal agencies KNOWN to be using SAFe are: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) US Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) Transportation Security Administration (TSA) Administrative Office of the US Courts (AO) Department of Justice (DOJ) Veterans Affairs (VA) National Geospatial Intelligence Agency (NGA) Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Social Security Administration (SSA) National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) US Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) US Air Force (USAF) US Postal Service (USPS) And More! 4/29/
31 Information Sources for Today s Presentation Since June 2016, AgileSavant has interviewed 118+ Agile Practitioners about the adoption of SAFe in the US Federal Government who are working in Departments / Agencies such as: Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Administrative Office of the US Courts (AO) US Customs and Immigration Service (USCIS) Transportation Security Administration (TSA) Department of Justice (DOJ) Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Social Security Administration (SSA) US Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) US Postal Service (USPS) 4/29/
32 Information Sources for Today s Presentation (cont.) The context of the 118+ interviews varied widely during the past year and included interactions such as: AgileSavant interviewing contractors for employment / subcontract work Large System Integrators interviewing AgileSavant as a potential subcontractor AgileSavant Federal client interviews conducted via our Agile Coaching Services AgileSavant Federal contractor interviews conducted via our Agile Coaching Services AgileSavant interviews with our Federal Contractor / Employees who attended one or more of our following SAFe certification course offerings: SAFe Scrum Master w/ SSM Certification SAFe Advanced Scrum Master w/ SASM Certification SAFe Product Manager / Product Owner w/ PMPO Certification And, yes, even conversations on the MARC train 4/29/
33 Common Federal SAFe Adoption Anti- Patterns and their Resulting Challenges 4/29/
34 Common Federal Anti-Patterns and Challenges Anti-Patterns SAFe implemented at the wrong organizational level Traditional procurement language, practices and vehicles are used to procure Lean-Agile services Not taking the time, or making the investment, to align Lean-Agile practices and outcomes to existing Program Portfolio Management (PPM) policies and guidelines Inappropriately trained resources routinely assigned to key SAFe roles (Examples: RTE, SM, PM & PO) Lack of existence or exposure to SAFe role competencies within the organization (i.e, Enterprise Architecture / Engineering) Resulting Challenges Inability to implement changes to the organization to better enable cadence, alignment and synchronization Getting the cross-functional orgs on the Agile Release Train (ART) Challenges committing contractors to produce Lean-Agile outcomes Program Teams are challenged in aligning Lean- Agile practices and outcomes to existing PPM policies and guidelines ROLE CONFUSION! Challenges appropriately aligning existing government and contractor resources to The People on the SAFe Big Picture 4/29/
35 Anti-Pattern: SAFe Implemented at the Wrong Org Level Implementing SAFe at an inappropriately empowered / influential organizational level leads to: An inability to implement changes to the organization to better enable the cadence, alignment and synchronization that are necessary for successful SAFe adoption An inability to get cross-functional orgs on the ART (emphasis on Local Optimization instead of Systems Thinking Value Stream Mapping is VERY difficult or impossible, so the ART cannot appropriately service the organizational Value Streams nor identify and break constraints Senior Departmental / Agency Leadership is inadequately trained on the Lean-Agile Mindset, Lean-Agile Practices, and leading the SAFe implementation The above inevitably leads to the organization suffering from all of the other Anti- Patterns and resulting challenges listed on the previous slide 4/29/
36 The Fix: Identify and Map the Value Stream(s) Value Stream identification and mapping will assist in exposing where in the organization and who in the Enterprise should lead the SAFe implementation Source: 4/29/
37 Anti-Pattern: Traditional Procurement Practices / Vehicles Implementing SAFe through the use of traditional procurement practices / vehicles leads to: Challenges committing contractors to produce expected Lean-Agile outcomes The Contract does not require that we send our staff to SAFe training The lack of government effort to align the organization to the SAFe Framework makes it impossible for us to commit to producing the expected Lean-Agile outcomes. Challenges maintaining long-lived ARTs, as SAFe requires, due to funding of projects / task orders and not Value Steams as SAFe recommends Dysfunctional cross-vendor relationships (i.e., competing vendors on a Multiple Award BPA) The task order states that we, Vendor A, are responsible for Work Process A; therefore, it is not our obligation nor is it in our best interest to assist in the optimization of Work Process B, which is the contractual requirement of Vendor B. In the end, the Customer and the American Tax Payer pays the price 4/29/
38 The Fix: Train Procurement Professionals in Agile Contracting Source: 4/29/
39 Anti-Pattern: Lack of APPM to PPM Alignment Implementing SAFe without investing the time to align Agile Project Portfolio Management (APPM) practices and outcomes to the organizations PPM policies and guidelines leads to: Program Teams are challenged in aligning Lean-Agile practices and outcomes to existing PPM policies and guidelines APPM metrics (Velocity, Throughput, Lead Time, Cycle Time, Productive Time, Wait Time, % Complete / Accurate, etc.) are slow to be adopted, or not adopted at all, to organizational PPM metrics As a result of the above, many of these important metrics are NOT tracked leading to a reduction in the benefits and quality outcomes expected via the adoption of Lean-Agile practices The organization questions the value of Lean-Agile practices, due to a lack of empirical data supporting improved outcomes 4/29/
40 The Fix: Start by Leveraging Existing Content and Guidance 4/29/
41 Anti-Pattern: Lack of Properly Trained SAFe Resources 4/29/
42 The Fix: Train the Leadership and the Teams 4/29/
43 Anti-Pattern: Lack of Existence or Exposure to SAFe Resources 4/29/
44 The Fix: Start with these Basic Steps 1. Train the Leadership and Change Agents 2. Identify and Map Value Stream(s) 3. Work with SAFe Partners (such as AgileSavant!) to identify gaps and develop short-term and long-term strategies to address gap areas 4/29/
45 Key Takeaways 4/29/
46 The Takeaways Most Federal implementations of SAFe face significant challenges due to the unique organizational, cultural and structural challenges inherent to the Federal Business Context Many Federal Departments and Agencies face very similar problems, anti-patterns and challenges when implementing SAFe, so these organizations should share their experiences similar to a Gov-Wide SAFe Implementation Community of Practice (CoP) The Problems are systemic and complex, but NOT insurmountable The keys to success are proper leadership adoption of the Lean-Agile Mindset, Lean-Agile Practices, and an active role leading the SAFe implementations Pull in outside experts, such as AgileSavant, to get your existing SAFe implementation on track, OR to assist in getting your new SAFe implementation off to a correct start 4/29/
