Platform partners
Platform Parters work to integrate the Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe) into their platform or application lifecycle management (ALM) solution to help users visualize, manage, and execute Lean-Agile work. These SAFe-based platforms support enterprise-wide collaboration, quality management, and business intelligence. SAFe Platform Partners gain early access to the latest developments in the Scaled Agile Framework, which provides essential input for platform and tool development.
