# Extending Your Enterprise Design System with a Product Library

**[Headway](https://daily.dev/sources/headway)** · 8 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

When design teams scale across multiple Scrum teams, consistency breaks down without a shared reference layer. A product library sits between the enterprise design system and day-to-day work, inheriting tokens and core components from the enterprise system while adding product-specific patterns, page templates, and status indicators. Built in Figma, it gives designers visibility into what exists, what is in progress, and what is finalized — eliminating duplicate work, accelerating onboarding, and keeping all teams aligned. The key is maintaining a two-way relationship with the enterprise system through design system champions, shared critiques, and inherited tokens that are never copied or overridden locally.
