IBM Engineering Lifecycle Management (ELM) Deployment Package for Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe) | Packaged Service

IBM Engineering Lifecycle Management (ELM) Deployment Package for SAFe is a packaged service designed to accelerate adoption of IBM CLM/ELM with SAFe. It provides expert-led installation, configuration, data migration, and SAFe-aligned templates for CLM tools such as DOORS Next, RTC, and RQM, enabling organizations to begin Agile and SAFe-style lifecycle management quickly with compliance-ready processes.

The service includes an initial assessment and deployment plan, setup and configuration of IBM ELM components, SAFe-aligned artifacts and workflows, backlog hierarchy and PI planning support, and standardized reporting and dashboards. Knowledge transfer is delivered through administrator and user enablement, along with configuration documentation.

The outcome is a ready-to-use IBM ELM environment that improves visibility and traceability from epics to tests, accelerates time-to-value, and reduces deployment risk. The engagement is delivered as a fixed-scope packaged service, typically completed within 6 to 12 weeks, with optional extensions for integrations, customization, and ongoing support.
