Abstract

To meet the ever-changing market demands, more efficient strategies are required due to the complexity of today's software development. Because it can combine Agile concepts with organizational structures to manage large-scale projects involving multiple teams and departments, the Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe) has been widely adopted. This research investigates how Flow Metrics from the SAFe framework can be used as a tool to improve productivity, efficiency and alignment of the software development process. This research examines how measurements such as flow velocity, flow efficiency, flow time, and flow load can be used to pinpoint bottlenecks, streamline processes, and improve the value delivered to clients. This research uses a qualitative methodology to examine the use of Flow Metrics in two interdependent Program Increments (PIs) by combining interviews with Agile practitioners and a literature survey. The analysis highlights how the Continuous Delivery (CD) Pipeline, backlog synchronization, and program increment planning—three critical components of SAFe—interact with each other. By highlighting the importance of metrics-based performance evaluation, collaborative planning, and continuous improvement, the findings of this research are intended to offer a useful foundation for businesses looking to implement SAFe for large-scale software development. This research advances a more comprehensive understanding of how SAFe and Flow Metrics can facilitate increasingly complex software development while guaranteeing adaptability to changing business needs.

Abstract

The investment awareness among the Indonesian populace is rising, particularly during the Covid-19 pandemic. Mutual funds are the most prevalent investment vehicle due to their accessibility, requiring minimal cash, and offering competitive returns, as they are managed by seasoned investment professionals. This is due to the relative ease of investing in this instrument with accessible capital and competitive returns, as fund management is conducted by seasoned investment managers. Conversely, the rapid advancement and proliferation of technology present new challenges for firms in the financial sector, particularly in banking and financial technology, as they strive to innovate and provide convenient services that cater to the needs of customers and investors. This research seeks to develop Enterprise Architecture for the integration of Mutual Fund services into digital channels via mobile banking, utilizing the TOGAF framework as the foundational design approach, supplemented by SWOT analysis to assess the strategic position and market potential. The research employed a qualitative methodology utilizing the ArchiMate program to illustrate diagrams in Enterprise Architecture (EA) across the public banking sector. The research indicated that architectural design can facilitate improved data access and enhance adaptability to technology and market advancements, hence removing inefficiencies and streamlining the review process. In conclusion, the application of EA in the incorporation of mutual fund services into the digital banking platform will optimize the company's performance processes to attain objectives, while also enhancing agility in evaluating technological risks to facilitate the monitoring, metrics, and analysis of information technology, thereby ensuring the achievement of business goals.
