Applied SAFe® Platform services

Expertise across the whole operating-model lifecycle.

Combine Applied SAFe® Platform with expert services to redesign how your organization works while preserving the know-how that still adds value, complete compliance for your context, and establish a governed operating model that can evolve with the organization.

The starting point

Start from what you have. Keep what works. Change what doesn’t.

Your organization already has engineering practices, quality and safety processes, roles, work products, policies, tools, and years of accumulated know-how. We use those as inputs to the transformation — preserving what adds value, removing duplication, resolving conflicts, and redesigning what no longer fits the way the organization needs to work.

Reuse where it makes sense. Redesign where it creates value. Govern the result as one operating model.

Services across the operating-model lifecycle

Expertise where the transformation needs it.

From transformation and process engineering to assurance, Agentic Engineering, and platform integration, our services help establish, operationalize, assure, and continuously evolve the same governed operating model.

Services cover the complete lifecycle from transformation and process design through execution, assurance, and governed improvement.

Engage where you need us

Start with an assessment. Bring us in for the full journey. Or anything in between.

Not every organization needs the same level of support. Engage PEDCO for a focused diagnostic, a redesign or implementation effort, team enablement, or ongoing operating-model support.

Assess

Understand the current state, gaps, risks, readiness, and improvement opportunities.

  • transformation readiness
  • process fitness
  • compliance coverage
  • internal assessment
  • Agentic Engineering readiness
  • process adherence

Design

Define the target operating model and the changes needed to get there.

  • operating-model design
  • process redesign
  • compliance mapping
  • tailoring architecture
  • agent authority & checkpoints
  • integration architecture

Implement

Turn the agreed design into the governed operating model and connected environment.

  • process migration
  • customization
  • compliance gap closure
  • platform configuration
  • integrations
  • agent pilots
  • deterministic controls

Enable

Build the internal capability to use and govern the operating model.

  • product training
  • administrator enablement
  • process-owner enablement
  • adoption support

Operate

Provide recurring expertise where ongoing support adds value.

  • Process Engineering as a Service
  • continuous improvement
  • review boards
  • recurring assessments
  • metrics and analytics
  • ongoing assurance

Not every engagement uses every stage. Start and stop wherever your organization needs support.

Services work on the same model the platform runs on

From recommendation to governed change.

Service outcomes do not have to end in slide decks. Process changes, compliance mappings, tailoring decisions, assessment findings, and improvement proposals can be implemented directly in the same governed operating model used by Applied SAFe® Platform.

Design in the model

Process engineering and customization change the operating model teams actually work from.

Map compliance to the model

Requirements, gaps, and recommendations remain connected to the process elements they concern.

Assess against the model

Internal assessments and adherence checks use the effective process that actually applies in the selected context.

Improve the model

Approved improvements update the governed baseline or tailoring logic and can propagate to the contexts that inherit them.

Expert services and software work on the same operating model.

FAQ

Questions we get

Do we need consulting services to use Applied SAFe® Platform?

No. The platform can be used independently. Services are available where you want additional expertise for transformation, process engineering, compliance, assessment, Agentic Engineering, integration, or ongoing improvement.

Do you preserve our existing processes or replace them?

Neither by default. Existing processes, practices, and organizational know-how are inputs to the transformation. We preserve what still adds value, reconcile it with Applied SAFe®, remove unnecessary duplication, and redesign what no longer fits the target way of working.

Can you work with process-engineering tools we already use?

Yes. Process Engineering Tooling & Migration covers coexistence, migration, model transformation, and integration with existing process repositories and modeling environments where required.

Can services include standards and regulatory compliance?

Yes. Engagements can include requirement mapping, coverage and gap analysis, process-change recommendations, tailoring by applicability, implementation of approved changes, and reassessment.

How is AI used in the services?

Depending on the engagement, AI can support process analysis, requirement mapping, gap identification, document review, adaptive surveys, voice interviews, recommendations, and impact analysis. Accountable people remain responsible for formal conclusions and governed process changes.

Bring us the transformation challenge you need to solve.

Whether you are introducing SAFe®, redesigning existing engineering processes, completing compliance coverage, preparing for an assessment, introducing AI agents, or continuously improving the operating model, we can start from your current environment and define the right engagement.
