Management Information Consultancy (tooling)
The Situation
A large portfolio needed to have full transparency of its Agile delivery across the entire business. This was a Scaled Agile implementation which needed a simple and cost effective system to be able to plan, manage and report across all teams at all levels.
The Task
The client required expert advice on tools for management information such as Agile Lifecycle Management (ALM) Tooling. Recently I conducted requirements analysis and derived specifications for tools. I engaged suppliers, facilitated demonstrations and trialled systems including Digital.ai AGILITY and JIRA.
The Action / Approach
I investigated feasibility for seamless interfaces to Power BI and set up integration support and training packages for users. The system chosen was implemented within 8 weeks and has been running faultlessly for two years with over 200 supported users. This has generated significant interest from other departments who are adopting the same model.
The Result
The benefits to users and stakeholders is measured by the increased transparency and trust in delivery outcomes and increased engagement from all staff.
