Program Overview

Agile Estimation & Planning plays a pivotal role in planning and managing the development of a product, and in the same way, when it answers the questions such as “How many features will be completed?”, “when it will be done?” and“ How much will this cost?”. In order to answer these questions using Agile, we need to have effective planning meetings and estimate the size of what we are building & measure the velocity rate at which we can get the work done.

With this information, we can derive the likely product development duration and the correspondence cost by dividing the estimated size of a set of features by the team’s velocity. SAFe^® is for building products, solutions at the enterprise level. There are multiple teams involved from different functional areas to align with the vision & mission of the organization. In such a case, planning and forecasting becomes even more important.
So, what do we do differently in SAFe^® for Estimation and Planning. Let us find out.
