Succeed with Scaled Agile
47% of agile transformations fail. Are your runaway Release Trains going the wrong way on a one-way track?
Are you experiencing challenges in implementing standardized scaling frameworks within your organization? Often, the indiscriminate application of these frameworks can lead to waste, inefficiency and failure.
Our thoughtful and comprehensive approach to scaling can yield significant benefits. Our clients, for instance, have witnessed a remarkable 67% improvement in business velocity. They have also enjoyed the rapid delivery of features — often within weeks — and have seen an immediate impact on revenue generation.
We begin with a Maturity Assessment, develop a transformation roadmap, and work hand-in-hand to scale in an incremental fashion, mitigating risk and accelerating value delivery. Our distinctive Business Agility Sparks Operating Model often serves as a versatile cornerstone for scaling delivery across various frameworks, including the Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe), Disciplined Agile, Large-Scale Scrum (LeSS), and Scrum at Scale.
In instances where your transformation is failing, we can help you recover and stabilize it through independent evaluation and proven fundamental techniques.
With our Strategic Agility Consulting, we'll help you design and integrate a customized fit-for-purpose scaling solution, enhancing agility and effectiveness in your product and project delivery as well as your overall operations.

Our development team was in a state of disarray, we needed education, process, and solutions to the chaos. We were hoping Lithespeed could give us a base level of Scrum knowledge for the entire team as well as the executive team so we could be aligned in our efforts. We absolutely feel like the Lithespeed engagement gave us what we were asking for and more, they gave our team a sense of excitement for the process and what it could bring to the team.
