Scaling Agile in Fortune 500 Enterprises with ICON Agility

In today’s high-stakes business environment, agility at scale is no longer optional—it's essential. Yet, for Fortune 500 companies, scaling Agile across hundreds of teams, geographies, and business units can feel overwhelming. Many organizations stall in their transformation efforts due to inconsistent adoption, tool sprawl, or a lack of alignment between business and IT.

That’s where ICON Agility Services makes a measurable difference.

As a SAFe® Platinum Transformation Partner and the first-ever partner of Scaled Agile Inc., ICON has supported enterprise Agile transformations for 40% of the Fortune 100—delivering not just frameworks, but outcomes.

Why Scaling Agile in the Enterprise Is So Challenging

Large organizations often struggle with:

• Siloed departments and fractured delivery models
• Legacy systems that hinder fast iteration
• Inconsistent Agile practices across teams
• Lack of alignment between portfolio strategy and execution
• Insufficient coaching capacity to support cultural change

Scaling Agile in this context requires more than just implementing Scrum or buying a tool—it requires a strategic partner who understands the realities of enterprise complexity and how to lead change from the inside out.

How ICON Agility Leads Enterprise Agile Success

Strategic Transformation Planning

ICON begins with deep discovery—understanding your business goals, delivery pain points, and cultural landscape. We tailor your Agile strategy to align with business value streams, not just IT org charts.

Agile Release Train (ART) Launches and Optimization

We guide organizations through successful ART launches, supporting end-to-end planning, team formation, and facilitation of PI Planning. We’ve helped some of the world’s most complex organizations launch dozens of ARTs in parallel, without losing alignment or momentum.

World-Class Coaching and Enablement

ICON provides executive coaches, RTEs, Scrum Masters, and Agile transformation leads who are seasoned experts—not entry-level consultants. Our people embed within your teams to build internal capability that lasts long after we leave.

Tooling That Matches Your Scale

We help large enterprises optimize Agile tools like Jira, Jira Align, Rally, and Aha! to provide real-time visibility across teams, programs, and portfolios. Our tooling expertise ensures data consistency, traceability, and meaningful metrics that drive smarter decisions.

Portfolio and Value Stream Alignment

ICON specializes in Lean Portfolio Management (LPM) and Value Stream Mapping to help leaders fund and prioritize work based on customer value, not department headcount. This is critical for enterprises seeking agility beyond IT.
