Migration to Jira

Bitburger Digital circle

Thanks to MESKRU's structured approach, we were able to cleanly transfer our previous workflows to Jira and now have a centralized, scalable system.
- Bitburger Digital

Initial situation

Bitburger Digital used a digital workflow tool for project management to speed up communication and increase transparency - but still without a central structure or standardized specifications that would enable a scalable rollout. The migration to Jira was intended to bring clarity, standardization and even more automation.

Objective

  • Structuring and standardization of the project boards 
  • Transfer of existing content including existing automations 
  • Creation of a scalable Jira project landscape 
  • Integration into existing collaboration systems (SharePoint) 
  • Enablement for all teams involved 

Our solution

1 Structured migration planning

  • Tool analysis and system understanding created for previous workflow tool
  • Definition of migration waves (migrate, archive, delete boards)
  • Development of a field mapping to Jira

2 Standardization & preparation

  • Development of a Jira project standard for Bitburger Digital
  • Definition of workflows, fields, role models
  • Creation of automations for the transfer to Jira logic

3 Technical implementation

  • Migration of the boards incl. testing, validation and standard alignment
  • Implementation of complex parent-child mappings & work item types
  • Transferring automations to Jira

4 Enablement & rollout

  • Jira user structure set up, rights & notifications configured
  • Training & onboarding for project teams
  • Rollout communication and accompanying documentation
  • Care according to the Post-migration support to implement additional needs of the business departments and to optimize processes further 

Result

  • Jira as a central project management tool for all departments
  • Uniform dashboards, standardized workflows, optimization of automated processes
  • Scalable setup for future projects
