The RIPE Framework is an answer to the scaling dilemma: How to scale your organization without having the additional capacity eaten up by fire-fighting of cross-team issues?
Is this fire-fighting caused by technology, by lack of discipline or by being to lazy? No! It is all about missing conversations caused by the divide and conquer nature of the scaling frameworks out there.
Just think about your organization:
How do you set the agenda (issues to address)?
How do you make sure the agenda addresses the right issues?
How do you identify those people who are the right ones to address a particular issue?
How do you make sure these people come together fast?
How do you make sure they fully resolve the respective issue?
The RIPE Framework uses a new way of thinking to answer these questions. It comes with a simple playbook that allows you to be up and running within just a few weeks.
Oh no! RIPE is rather a missing piece to main stream scaled frameworks which allows them to deliver on promise of business agility at scale.
The RIPE framework is published under open-source and explained under https://ripeframework.com. However, access to the respective implementation guidance and good practice is only possible by becoming a RIPE Guide.
We do not offer any kind of certification because we are not going to support value destroying certification business (agile industrial complex).
RIPE doesn't require that everyone in the organization takes part in a RIPE event, rather only that the RIght PEople take part. As such, you always have people available to take care of production incidents.
For SAFe it is system architects, product managers and RTEs who take care of the continuous stewardship. In case you use RIPE once a week, the other four days are freed up for actual stewardship and not constantly full of meetings because getting a decision made takes multiple meetings because no one is ever available.
RIPE enhances scaled frameworks substantially by providing an answer to the scaling dilemma.
