Each customer in the end-to-end flow of value derives tangible and\/or intangible benefits from the solutions they receive. Likewise, value is returned to the enterprise in the form of revenue or decreased costs. Although VSM can be applied to all types of value streams, SAFe specifically applies VSM to optimize the DVS.<\/p><p>The process of specifying value is aided by Customer Centricity and Design Thinking.

These are visual representations of the value stream (or segments of the value stream) that help regulate efficient flow through the system, as shown in Figure 7.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-bfdb0e6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"bfdb0e6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"450\" height=\"323\" src=\"https:\/\/www.scrum.cn\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Figure-7.-Kanban-systems-foster-pull-based-processing.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-4303\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.scrum.cn\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Figure-7.-Kanban-systems-foster-pull-based-processing.png 450w, https:\/\/www.scrum.cn\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Figure-7.-Kanban-systems-foster-pull-based-processing-300x215.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">Figure 7.

SAFe encourages the use of Team, ART, Solution Train, and Portfolio Kanban systems.<\/p><p>Further, solutions should be architected to support pull-based flow and on-demand releases. They should be loosely coupled such that individual components and sub-systems can be changed, tested, and deployed independently, avoiding the high transaction costs and delays of \u2018big bang\u2019 change efforts. This can be accomplished by architecting for DevOps and continuous delivery using domain-driven design (DDD), containerization, and cloud-first methods. Also, feature toggles and blue\/green infrastructure patterns effectively decouple deployment from release and allow functionality to be pulled into use on demand.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-317f761 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"317f761\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">5.

Although a perfectly efficient value stream is not achievable, the constant drive for perfection is a trademark of Lean thinking and establishes a culture of continuous value stream innovation throughout the organization.<\/p><p>An organization pursuing delivery perfection must regularly assess its value stream against defined performance targets. Proper metrics, both quantitative and qualitative, provide a foundation for effective decision-making, replacing opinions with facts. Flow metrics (Figure 8) offer a comprehensive view of the work moving through the value stream along with how quickly, predictably, and efficiently that work is flowing.

These efforts address specific pieces of the value stream at a time in a never-ending stream of targeted improvements that are informed by Iteration Reviews, Inspect and Adapt events, and periodic value stream mapping sessions. But sometimes, more dramatic, system-wide changes are required.<\/p><p>Radical improvement, or kaikaku, involves a significant reconfiguration of the value stream itself. This is necessary when the activities and\/or people in the value stream, as they are currently organized, are not able to deliver the required solutions. The value stream must be redefined, and the people reorganized around the new flow of value. In these circumstances, organizations go through the process of identifying value streams and ARTs, replacing existing activities and re-configuring ARTs as necessary.<\/p><p>Organizations must continually identify inefficiencies in the value stream and make incremental and radical improvements when necessary to correct them. This persistent quest for perfection and bias for action signifies relentless improvement\u2014a fundamental component of the Lean-Agile mindset.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-821e348 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"821e348\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Value Stream Leadership in SAFe<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a7dea90 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"a7dea90\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>VSM is not easy. It entails the disciplined, perpetual application of the five principles of Lean thinking throughout each value stream. This, of course, requires time, expertise, and dedication. Who, then, is responsible for managing the value stream?<\/p><p>Historically, organizations have appointed a Value Stream Manager to serve in this capacity, particularly in manufacturing contexts. A prototypical Value Stream Manager has the following characteristics:<\/p><ul><li>Lean mindset \u2013 They understand the principles of Lean thinking and how to apply them to improve value stream flow.<\/li><li>Business knowledge \u2013 They understand the customer needs, market forces, and compliance factors that shape product strategy and define value metrics that guide product delivery.<\/li><li>Technical knowledge \u2013 They understand which products, services, and supporting tools will produce the solutions with the most business value.<\/li><li>Process knowledge \u2013 They understand the sequence of activities across the organization that turns ideas into valuable solutions.<\/li><li>Strategic influence \u2013 They evangelize, support, enable, and secure funding for value stream improvements.<\/li><li>Tactical influence \u2013 They identify needed improvements, mobilize teams, lead change, and regularly measure results.<\/li><\/ul><p>A single Value Stream Manager may suffice for small, independent value streams; however, it is unlikely that any individual possesses all the necessary characteristics at scale. Therefore, in SAFe, a few key roles have joint responsibility for managing the value stream. As illustrated in Figure 9, ART and Solution Train triads carry out the tactical, output-oriented aspects of VSM while Business Owners provide the strategic, outcome-oriented aspects. Together, they act as a team to provide the multi-faceted leadership required to manage the execution and evolution of value streams at enterprise scale.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c63fb3b elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"c63fb3b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"730\" height=\"376\" src=\"https:\/\/www.scrum.cn\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Figure-8.-Shared-value-stream-leadership-in-SAFe.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-4305\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.scrum.cn\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Figure-8.-Shared-value-stream-leadership-in-SAFe.png 730w, https:\/\/www.scrum.cn\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Figure-8.-Shared-value-stream-leadership-in-SAFe-300x155.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 730px) 100vw, 730px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">Figure 9.
