SAFe® for Hardware: Agility for the world of physical product development

  • Agile Organisation
  • SAFe® for Hardware

Agile methods have long been established in the software world. But what about hardware development - in a world where high complexity, long development cycles, regulatory hurdles and diverse stakeholders are part of everyday life? The answer: with SAFe® for Hardware, agile working can also be successfully used for the development of physical and cyber-physical products.

From theory to practice: agility in a real hardware context

The new SAFe® for Hardware goes far beyond theoretical approaches. In our hands-on training courses, participants don't just develop concepts - they build, test and experience real products. Whether it's a slow-moving marble run with complex components or a stable shelf made of unstable material: the training impressively demonstrates how agile principles also work in a physical space.

Why SAFe® also makes sense in the hardware world

Especially in large, complex hardware projects, you need flexibility, short reaction times and a clear structure. The Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe®) offers you exactly that - tailored to the special challenges of hardware development: high product complexity, many stakeholders, external suppliers and strict regulatory requirements.

Experience it yourself - practical and directly applicable

If you not only want to understand agile change in physical product development, but also experience it, this two-day intensive training course is just right for you. The realistic exercises make it clear how agile principles can also be implemented in physical and cyber-physical product development - not just on paper, but directly in your day-to-day project work.
