Launching more ARTs and Value Streams is the implementation step that follows Coach ART Execution on the SAFe Implementation Roadmap. The SAFe Implementation Roadmap is a guide that helps enterprises implement SAFe in a structured and reliable way. The roadmap consists of 12 critical moves that span from reaching the tipping point to extending to the portfolio and beyond. Coach ART Execution is the seventh move, where the first ART is launched and coached by a SAFe Program Consultant (SPC) or other expert. Launch more ARTs and Value Streams is the eighth move, where the enterprise expands the implementation of SAFe to other value streams and ARTs, based on the learnings and successes of the firstART. References: SAFe Implementation Roadmap, Coach ART Execution, Launch more ARTs and Value Streams

Trust is developed by:

“Delivering value consistently and predictably… Predictability builds confidence between teams and stakeholders.”

This is reinforced during PI Planning and Iteration Reviews.

The SAFe Workbook outlines Lean-Agile Leadership as having three core dimensions:

Mindset and principles

Leading by example

Leading the change

Each dimension is explained with specific behaviors and leadership strategies.

The workbook section on the Program Board notes:

“ART Planning Board Legend: Blue – Features; Red or Pink – Significant Dependency”

These visual elements are used during PI Planning to show feature delivery timelines and cross-team dependencies.
