The client wanted to implement Jira cloud and Atlassian
Guard along with automation, change management and
integration of Jira with a customer-facing portal.
A thorough system study was conducted to analyze the client’s current Jira setup. This involved understanding their infrastructure, user base, projects, workflows, and other elements needed to implement seamlessly the Change management process within the Jira cloud.
Implemented automated change management processes and released them for the respective teams and managers.
The implementation also required a communication channel between the change managers and their customers, for which we integrated 'Email this issue' with Jira. Automating the overall flow from the creation of a Change and its subsequent sub-changes and subtasks within the main change including the change details and its life cycle; communication management between change managers and reporters, managing the SLAs, emails notifications of SLAs, workflow automation, and closure.
Implemented the solution within Jira cloud, completely automating the process needed by the team Phase wise causing no disruption to the business.
We have integrated Azure AD with Atlassian using the Atlassian Guard for the SSO.
MicroGenesis helped integrate one of their customer portals with the Jira cloud so that the change creation happened from only one place which was already triggered by customers.
The successful implementation of Jira cloud has resulted in having an automated process in place for one of the client’s team, which helped the Change Managers to smoothly manage multiple types of changes in one place and manage them end to end with minimal user involvement in the process.
In a nutshell the whole change process was fully automated in Jira with very minimal user involvement along with the implementation of Atlassian Guard for Single sign-on and security.
The change requests now flowed automatically from their customer-facing portal to Jira with auto-creating the defined sub-tasks for different types of change requests and sub-changes, including auto-filled details, changing life cycle, communication between the change manager and the reporter with the client-facing portal, resolutions, closure and implementation of actual changes. The process automation has resulted in more work efficiency among the Change managers by easing their workload due to fully automated process.
