Planning, delivery and alignment

Planning in SAFe is more than just outlining the program and team planning sessions. You also present the business context and a vision. This helps everyone across your organization align with the common mission captured and defined on the portfolio level. Your teams are then able to evolve the high-level goals initiatives throughout all levels for your enterprise.

Polarion SAFe Template supports cadence-based planning events that serve as a heartbeat for all Solution and Agile Release trains. It helps all programs and teams align and strive for common goals and targets for global milestones. The template's release structure enables the notion of "develop on cadence, release any time" by supplying a common platform for the delivery of the finished content directly to the customer as soon as it is ready.

Release on demand

Follow the philosophy of integrating security practices within the DevOps process. DevSecOps involves creating a "Security as Code" culture with ongoing, flexible collaboration between release engineers and security teams.

Plug Polarion into your DevSecOps toolchain to enable continuous integration and delivery, trigger pipelines with parameterized calls and get instant feedback from the CI/CD tools.
