The paper analyses the Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe) which is currently one of the most important agile scaling frameworks, being adopted by the software development companies to maintain a competitive advantage in the digital age and, at the same time, it represents a way to involve all the organization departments in delivering technology-based solutions. Through this framework, functions like marketing, sales, legal, finance adopt Agile and Lean practices to achieve greater transparency and align project objectives with business goals. As every business is becoming a software business, building solid and automated models is essential to enable and sustain a large-scale software delivery. The SAFe adoption steps are analyzed to identify the prerequisites needed for the organizational transformation. This paper provides a case study presenting the implementation of SAFe at a global software development company. This study provides relevant information for both practitioners and academics. The examined framework is based on robust theories and offers tools that software companies can use to increase the efficiency of their software delivery model. Even if the assessed framework is partially adopted within an organization, its core principles, tools, and techniques enhance the software delivery practices.
