Explanation
Large Solution SAFe is purpose-built for organizations developing large, complex solutions - particularly in industries like defense, aerospace, automotive, and medical devices - where regulatory compliance and safety standards govern how the system must be built. The additional constructs it provides (Solution Train, Solution Architect, Supplier integration) address the coordination and traceability demands that compliance frameworks require.
Why the distractors are wrong:
- A - System Demos occur at the ART level in Essential SAFe after every PI, not as a reason to adopt Large Solution.
- C - Scaling Agile across the enterprise describes Portfolio SAFe, which adds strategic investment themes and portfolio-level flow.
- D - Large Solution isn't for every large enterprise; it's triggered by complexity and compliance needs, not company size alone.
Memory tip: Think of the "3 Cs" - Complex, Compliance, Coordinated Suppliers. If a solution requires all three, Large Solution SAFe is the configuration to reach for.
