Practitioner insights on Atlassian, Microsoft, AI governance, and agile at scale

What we write about

Atlassian and Microsoft insights for regulated enterprises

Every article here comes from active client work. We write when a vendor deadline, a new regulation, or a product change affects what our clients need to plan for. We also keep each piece short enough to share with a steering committee.

Atlassian platform changes. First, we track the Data Center end-of-life timeline, cloud migration readiness, Jira Service Management, and Jira Align. As a result, each article gives you the dates, the decision points, and the questions to ask before you commit budget.

Microsoft 365 and Copilot. In addition, we cover Copilot readiness, Microsoft Purview, and Copilot Studio. Our checklists focus on permissions, data labeling, and adoption, because those are the areas where most rollouts stall.

AI governance and compliance. We also explain new federal guidance, such as the CISA software bill of materials (SBOM) minimum elements, and how AI governance policies apply to tools like Rovo and Copilot. Specifically, we show what to document, who owns it, and how to prove it in an audit.

Agile at scale. Finally, we share lessons from SAFe and Jira Align programs at financial services, healthcare, and government clients. For example, we cover how to run PI planning when teams work across both Atlassian and Microsoft tools.
