How SAFe Organisations Can Achieve Built-in Quality

Agile teams often struggle to make built-in quality in the Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe) a reality. 

Like many high-level frameworks, SAFe provides theories to follow without detailing how to implement them in practice. It provides little guidance on how to deal with operational hurdles such as time pressure, limited resources or lacking expertise — especially when it comes to assuring product quality. 

Speaking in a recent Applause webinar, Matthew Vance, Quality Manager for Audi’s myAudi solution, shared his experiences getting started with built-in quality within SAFe. In this follow-up eBook, we take a closer look at how myAudi made built-in quality a success. 

We also explain why built-in quality is so important, pick apart key challenge areas and provide recommendations for how to tailor built-in quality practices to your company.
