Abstract: Organizations are often faced with challenges related to producing organization level scaled agile metrics which can help measure the progress of agile transformation initiative in an organization, and assess the impact of agile transformation on program execution and delivery. There are many team level metrics in agile which are helpful at team level only and most cannot be scaled at Organization level. Also, the metrics must need to be customer/ business focused so business /customer / end user and stakeholders can relate to it, and understand the benefit of agile execution. Objective of this paper is to share the organization level agile metrics and measures which are customer focused, can be applied at team level, and scaled to organization level. This will provide a consistent way of measurement so comparisons can be drawn across delivery organizations both at team and organization level. IT industry will benefit from these metrics and measures as with these metrics organizations can measure the success of their agile transformation initiative, compare the health of agile execution across delivery organizations, and relate the benefits of Agile execution and agile transformation so business and customer can understand and appreciate it. These metrics have been experimented both at team and organization level based on which suggested targets are also shared for these metrics. Our aim is to further evaluate and evolve these metrics and measures.
