Episode notes
Pega’s Delivery Engine Role
- Pega treats its group as the engine that changes how Pega builds software, not just the product they sell.
- Brodie frames his role as delivering high-quality working software faster across a complex legacy market.
Trialing Spotify Then SAFe
- Pega experimented with the Spotify model and then SAFe as it scaled to hundreds of teams across regions.
- Each model brought value but also created new problems like silos and misaligned life cycles, prompting further evolution.
One Framework Won’t Fit All
- Different products require different delivery styles; one-size frameworks fail when product life cycles clash.
- Pega built a hybrid approach, keeping learnings from multiple models and tailoring per product.
