We have worked with thousand of organizations that are attempting to become more effective and more agile. They usually start by implementing Scrum. Then they are faced with the issue of how to get the most out of their investment in Scrum. They wonder how to manage its scaling throughout the organization.
Based on the years of experience that Scrum.org partners and practitioners have helping organizations gain agility, Ken Schwaber and Scrum.org created the Continuous Improvement Framework™ (CIF™) to provide you with an effective way to continuously improve from your current position to one of competitive advantage. CIF is a framework within which an enterprise can manage the adoption of Scrum, control the risks, and optimize its investment.
