How do we differentiate between Portfolio Epic Vs Program Level Epic (SAFe) in Jira Align?

Dhruv Doshi April 9, 2024

To my understanding all Epics in Jira Align live at the Portfolio level. But our Organization's LPM wants a way to distinguish between Epics that are Portfolio Epic Vs Program Level Epics. An additional criteria of Portfolio Epic is that they have a Budget of => $3M. 

What would be the ideal approach of being able to distinguish them? Would creating a Program Container called "Portfolio Epics" be a good idea? Where the primary program on an Epic would be "Portfolio Epic" and additional programs would be the actual ART's working on the Epic. Or is this a Bad idea? How would this affect reporting on Jira Align? 

What would be Atlassian's recommendation to this?

In short, Program Epics are just Features without a Parent Epic or Capability.

So are you saying that when we create an epic in Jira Align, they are technically automatically by default Portfolio Epics?
