Blueprint has joined the Scaled Agile Partner Network.

Members of the Scaled Agile Partner Network are recognized as being able to help facilitate and accelerate business results using the Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe), the world’s leading framework for enterprise agility. SAFe has proven to help businesses address the significant challenges of developing and delivering high-quality software and systems in the shortest sustainable lead time.

Storyteller, Blueprint’s Agile planning platform, designed for large scale, enterprise Agile adoption, bridges the gap of aligning business stakeholders throughout the Scaled Agile IT delivery process. Storyteller supports SAFe Value Streams by ensuring that business objectives are accurately defined, tracked, and delivered as they flow through Agile Release Trains. Storyteller enables the decomposition of these objectives into features, from value streams down through program increments and iterations.

Supporting digital transformation at an enterprise scale requires a synergy of process, people, and technology. As it stands, SAFe addresses processes in the form of its exceptional enterprise agility framework – and people, through their ecosystem of services partners. The addition of Blueprint to this ecosystem now addresses technology needs via enterprise Agile products like Storyteller.

“Working with best-in-class partners like Blueprint represents our commitment to helping software and systems-dependent enterprises improve time-to-market, quality, and employee engagement,” says Dean Leffingwell, creator of SAFe and cofounder of Scaled Agile, Inc. “By incorporating SAFe into their solution offering, Blueprint is enabling the world’s largest organizations to become more Agile in the marketplace and more competitive in their industries.”

“Large organizations continue to struggle with implementing Agile practices at scale across the enterprise,” says Martin Saipe, Chief Operating Officer at Blueprint. “Blueprint technology combined with the Scaled Agile methodology provides a market leading solution for organizations implementing Agile at scale while dramatically improving overall business-IT alignment.”
