Defense and space are high-stakes industries, and only the truly established giants get to work in such fields. One such giant was approaching the transformation to agile, and the task wasn't easy. Making the top goals transparent at an organizational level was a key obstacle for this organization, and using Jira for managing OKRs didn't help either. This resulted in a process that was extensively complex, and adoption became a big challenge.
Setting the radars right
The size of the organization and the lack of proper, specialized tools were proving to be the major issues. While OKRs aid in large scale digital & agile transformation, not doing it right can have detrimental effects. Also, the efficiency of Jira is several notches above its ability to handle OKRs off the blocks, and the partner organization was feeling the heat.
Fine-tunning the path
UpRaise for Employee Success was the first tool on the Atlassian marketplace to pioneer the native integration of Jira & OKRs. Connecting long-term goals to day-to-day projects has been productive for organizations, and with Jira - they had a powerful platform to do so. The hierarchy view of OKRs in the app was of particular interest to the partner organization, and the stage for the solution was set.
Giving it a go
UpRaise team collaborated with the partner organization to take the hirarchy view of Employee Success app a notch further, and support their aim of objectively measuring the progress of different teams. Now, they are working with UpRaise customer success team to integrate relevant data from Employee Success into their executive-level reporting dashboard.
