The iterative nature of Agile introduces new challenges at the portfolio management level. Yet, the research on Agile portfolio management has enjoyed limited research interest. Aim. Describe how traditional management approaches can leverage existing agile portfolio management practices and concepts. Method. Conceptual Analysis with mapping of SAFe portfolio management concepts and COBIT 2019. Results. Portfolio man- agement concepts from SAFe which the COBIT 2019 practitioners can leverage. Conclusion. Using the frameworks SAFe and COBIT combined is not yet ready for implementation. Rec- ommendation. Introduce new COBIT’s focus area so that the agile concepts can be leveraged.
