The scaling agile industry — SAFe, LeSS, Nexus, Scrum@Scale, and their variants — exists to solve a real problem: how do you coordinate multiple agile teams working toward a shared product without recreating waterfall planning at the portfolio level? The problem is genuine. The solution is frequently applied to organizations that do not have it. The typical trigger for a scaling framework adoption is not coordination failure between teams — it is discomfort at the leadership level with the absence of a visible, organization-wide plan.
