I am a certified SAFe Agilist, Scaled Program Consultant, Practitioner, Scrum Master, Advanced Srum Master, Release Train Engineer, Product Owner, DevOps Practitioner, Government Practitioner, Agile Software Engineer, Architect or any SAFe certification known as of the time of reading this question. What is my role under SMPL?

SMPL is a framework for creating models that arrange individuals and priorities in a manner that produces sustained outcomes based on evidence.

SMPL is not a recipe for scaling. It is not a process nor is it a methodology. SMPL empowers its participants to determine the skills and knowledge that they need to succeed. It mandates that empirical evidence is used to determine these skills and resources the participants in a model need.

In turn, the participants can align with one of the four areas of accountability that SMPL recognizes.

Quality under SMPL is an infinite pursuit and the idea that one person or a group of individuals could define for the rest of the world a one size fits all template for quality is absurd. In fact, the one size fits all approach for everything or anything is rejected.

Each model is unique to a certain degree just like each fingerprint is unique to the person bearing it. SMPL places the trust on figuring out the necessary skills to take accountability for the 4 areas of accountability and the related activities with confidence into the participants of the model.
