Summary:
Implement a production enterprise JIRA environment for UTO development. UTO developers have been using ALT^I's JIRA site to define, organize, prioritize development tasks, assign development resources, identify target due dates, etc. Although using ALT^I's application has worked to this point, access was granted based on UTO developers being former ALT^I developers. This access then extended to most UTO developers, business analysts and project managers using JIRA/Confluence. ALT^I's JIRA application was purchased with grant money for specific needs.
UTO would like to standardize on JIRA for development task tracking. Having an enterprise system will also allow UTO to extend access to JIRA to other ASU development areas that we partner with. An additional benefit to have an enterprise JIRA environment is the control of administrative permissions. With the ALT^I JIRA site administrative requests to add users, change permissions, create new project space, etc. all had to go through an ALT^I JIRA administrator.
