FLOQ at Scale

FLOQ scales from solo founders to 500-person engineering orgs — without adopting SAFe-level ceremony. Here's how.

🌊

Cross-Team Coordination

Currents & Current Board

  • Multiple teams work on different Currents simultaneously
  • Current Lead coordinates across teams for shared Currents
  • Current Board shows all teams' active Currents and Floq Rates
  • Cross-team blockers become Floq Emergencies — escalated, not waited on
  • No PI Planning. No Agile Release Trains.
📊

Stakeholder Visibility

Real-time, not sprint-timed

  • Current Map: always-live visual of all Currents + progress
  • Drop Notes: periodic external-facing summary (weekly or trigger-based)
  • Floq Rate Dashboard: executive view of outcome delivery velocity
  • Outcome Debt Report: shipped features that haven't hit targets — honest accountability
⚖️

Capacity & Load Management

No sprint capacity planning needed

  • WIP limits per Builder: max 2 active Outcome Tickets simultaneously
  • Floq Capacity metric: historical outcomes-per-period sets realistic expectations
  • Surge handling: Floq Burst — voluntary intensive push for critical outcomes
  • No capacity planning theater — actual throughput data drives decisions
🤖

AI Integration at Scale

AI as infrastructure, not tooling

  • Each team has dedicated AI Pairs per Outcome Ticket
  • AI generates cross-team documentation automatically
  • Signal Analyst role uses AI to monitor metrics across all Currents
  • Shared AI knowledge base grows with each outcome — institutional memory
🏥

Regulated Industries

HIPAA · SOX · GDPR · PCI-DSS

  • Ship Standard includes compliance gates: audit trails, data classification, regulatory scan
  • Every deployment logged with Outcome Ticket reference for audit purposes
  • Continuous compliance > sprint-end compliance reviews
  • Automated compliance is faster AND more thorough than manual sprint-end reviews

Team Topology in Large Orgs

No Agile Release Trains. Just Currents.

  • Platform teams: own infrastructure Currents, serve via async support
  • Product teams: own customer-facing Currents, measured on business outcomes
  • Data teams: own analytics Currents, provide Signal Analyst capability org-wide
  • AI/ML teams: AI Pairs for all teams, continuously improving generation quality
