BEACON Agility Maturity Framework™
Agile-DevOps-Eng. Maturity Assessments
True agility goes beyond ceremonies, frameworks, or expensive tools – it’s about how people, teams, and organizations sustainably deliver value. At StandoutBrains, we’ve developed the BEACON Agility Maturity Framework™ – a unique, human-centric approach to assessing and advancing Agile Maturity, Engineering Excellence, and DevOps Maturity. Unlike one sided assessments that often cost organizations heavily without delivering meaningful outcomes BEACON is built to combine structured insights with empathy, context, and real conversations. It takes a balanced view, exploring culture, leadership, collaboration, and mindset to understand Agile Maturity, while also evaluating automation, test strategy, CI/CD, and architectural agility as markers of Engineering Excellence, and assessing flow, feedback, and continuous delivery practices to gauge DevOps Maturity.
We also work with organizations that use tools such as AgilityHealth® and Comparative Agility®, leveraging our experience and expertise to get you started on right foot.
SAFe Agile Implementation
With experience leading several end-to-end SAFe implementations we help organizations adopt the Scaled Agile Framework in a way that delivers measurable business outcomes. Our expertise spans customized SAFe trainings, ART and portfolio launches, and the design of lean portfolio governance practices that align strategy with execution. We focus on tailoring SAFe to your organization’s context—balancing framework discipline with necessary customization—so that leaders, teams, and portfolios work in harmony. The result is a sustainable, enterprise-wide operating model that improves alignment, accelerates delivery, and maximizes value realization.
Contextual Scaling Agile Models
Scaling agility is never a one-size-fits-all journey. While frameworks like SAFe, LeSS, and Spotify-inspired models provide valuable structures and proven guidance, true success lies in going beyond any single framework. The most effective transformations emerge from blending multiple frameworks, best practices, and scaling patterns, and tailoring them to the unique context of your organization. We start by deeply understanding the organization’s DNA: its culture, leadership style, decision-making norms, value streams, delivery models, and customer ecosystem. This diagnostic view helps us identify both enablers and barriers to agility. From there, we co-create a scaling approach that aligns with your strategic priorities, governance needs, and ways of working. Rather than rigid framework adoption, our approach establishes a sustainable operating model.
