The leanagile transformation in PCP R&D also requires the organizations around R&D to support the leanagile execution. The gates, milestones, and deliverables should not interfere with an incremental and iteration approach, where requirements, design, code, tests, and releases are continuously developed.

Organizations adopt lean and agile principles, processes, and best practices to develop and deliver highquality systems, products, and services faster. Lean focuses on decreasing effort and cost and reducing waste. Agile enables incremental deliverables of working software and hardware by crossfunctional teams.

Overview of the PCP R&D Organization.

The purpose of the Process Governance is to ensure controlled steering and improvement of the R&D processes and applies to the PCP R&D organization.

The PCP R&D processes consist of master, functional, supporting, and program processes:

Mapping of the key parts of the PCP R&D Processes to Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe) is done, to give a better understanding of how the two frameworks can coexist and strengthen the leanagile planning and execution in PCP R&D.
