Organisational agile maturity
and readiness assessment
Why is understanding the current state important?
Agility is not a toolkit or a predefined end state—it is a continuous journey of improvement. Organisations start from different points, and an immediate, full-scale transformation is not always realistic or necessary. Successful transformations share a common pattern: they build on the organisation’s existing ways of working and evolve step by step.
Many organisations attempt to implement an “ideal” agile model (e.g. Scrum or scaled frameworks) without having a clear understanding of their current operating model. As a result, a significant number of agile transformations fail to deliver the expected outcomes. Organisations try to adopt new ways of working rapidly, while the necessary structural, operational, and cultural foundations are not yet in place.
Common symptoms include:
- Agile tools in use, but underlying issues remain unchanged
- Too many parallel initiatives and difficulty prioritising
- Strong dependencies between teams, leading to slow delivery
- Unclear responsibilities and decision-making authority
- Misalignment between organisational structure and ways of working
- Unrealistic expectations about agility—or resistance to change
The real challenge lies in how well an organisation can integrate the agile mindset into its own operations.
This is where our agile maturity assessment helps: it provides a clear view of your current state and supports you in identifying the next realistic steps in your transformation journey.

What do we measure?
STRUCTURE
How teams and responsibilities are organized: along functional silos or increasingly around shared goals and customer value.
WAYS OF WORKING
How value flows from idea to customer: through multiple handoffs or increasingly in a continuous, collaborative way.
CULTURE
What decision-making and collaboration patterns define the organisation: control and hierarchy, or learning and shared ownership.
PRIORITIES
AND FOCUS
How well the organization can focus on the most important initiatives and align teams around them.
Value stream
AND DEPENDENCIES
How value creation is organised as an end-to-end flow, and how dependencies between teams either hinder or support delivery.
OWNERSHIP
AND DECISIONS
How clearly responsibilities and decisions are defined, and to what extent teams operate autonomously.
