Atlassian & Jira Consulting
Jira Services That Keep Your Teams Moving
Jira is only as good as the way it’s set up. We configure it around your process, so your teams spend less time updating tickets and more time delivering. From a first-time setup to a full migration, we make Jira work for you.
What we offer
Jira Services Tailored to Your Workflow
Every team works differently. We help configure Jira around your delivery process, service management needs, reporting requirements, and governance standards so your tools support the way your organization operates.
Jira Service Management
Configure service projects, request portals, queues, service-level agreements, approvals, and request workflows to support IT and business service teams.
Custom Workflows and Permissions
Design and refine workflow schemes, issue types, field configurations, screens, project roles, and permission schemes to match agreed processes.
Scrum and Kanban Boards
Configure agile boards, sprint workflows, backlog organization, swimlanes, and filters to improve delivery visibility and team coordination.
Jira Migration and Cloud Transition
Plan migrations from supported third-party tools and eligible Jira Server or Data Center environments to Jira Cloud, including data mapping, test migrations, and cutover preparation.
Migration scope depends on the source platform, versions, apps, data volume, and compatibility.
Dashboards and Reporting
Build dashboards and reports for sprint burndown, velocity, resolution time, issue trends, and SLA tracking based on the available data and reporting capabilities.
Jira Automation
Create automation rules for tasks such as auto-assignment, notifications, status transitions, field updates, and other repetitive workflows where supported.
Atlassian and Third-Party Integrations
Configure suitable integrations with Confluence, Bitbucket, GitHub, Slack, Microsoft Teams, and other supported tools.
Training and Ongoing Administration
Provide Jira administration assistance, team training, configuration improvements, troubleshooting, and maintenance based on the agreed service scope.
Technical capabilities
The Technical Expertise Behind Better Jira Workflows
A well-configured Jira environment requires more than creating projects and boards. We focus on configuration quality, useful reporting, appropriate automation, access control, and safe change management.
Configuration and Administration
- Workflow schemes and workflow design.
- Field configurations and screen schemes.
- Issue types and project configuration.
- Project roles and permission schemes.
- Board configuration and project settings.
Available options depend on the Jira product, deployment model, and permissions.
Querying and Reporting
- Jira Query Language (JQL).
- Saved searches and reusable filters.
- Custom dashboards and gadgets.
- Agile delivery reporting.
- Service-level and resolution reporting where supported.
Automation and APIs
- Jira automation rules.
- Webhooks and event-driven integrations.
- Jira REST API integrations.
- Automated notifications and field updates.
- Workflow improvements and repetitive-task reduction.
Not every automation is available on every plan or deployment model.
Customization and Marketplace Apps
- Evaluation and configuration of suitable Atlassian Marketplace apps.
- Add-on compatibility and dependency review.
- Custom scripts or extensions where supported and appropriate.
- Maintainability and upgrade considerations.
Supported Jira Cloud customization is distinguished from capabilities that may be available only in particular deployment models or through compatible apps.
Governance and Access Control
- Cleanup of unused fields, projects, and outdated configurations.
- User, group, and permission reviews.
- Configuration documentation.
- Change management practices.
- Audit and governance readiness.
ITTS does not claim formal compliance or audit certification; these require independent verification.
Migration Safety and Planning
- Source environment assessment.
- Data and configuration mapping.
- App and integration compatibility review.
- Test migrations and validation.
- Cutover planning and rollback or recovery planning where technically feasible.
Zero downtime or zero data loss cannot be guaranteed.
