Info

This is a high-level plan of action on establishing a complete work environment from scratch on Atlassian ecosystem of tools.

1. Bringing everything into one place

Client - process driver; Consultant - support with setting up whiteboard
Time estimate - defined by client

The initial phase is all about establishing the ground. It is recommended to use Whiteboards app to bring together all available materials in a free form, e.g. upload documents/reports, embed competitor’s / partners / customers' website pages, etc.

...

2. Defining Jira Parameters

Client and Consultant work together with the Whiteboard
Time for collaborative work - 1 to 4 hours, depending on complexity

Guiding Considerations

Expand
titleIssue Types, Screens and Fields

Define custom issue types that can be universally applied and reused across multiple projects. Every issue type can have its designated screen with a defined set of fields.

...

3. Setting up Jira Instance according to the defined parameters

Set up by Consultant → Reviewed by Client → Feedback from Client → updates by Consultant.
Setup time may take from 2 hours (with out-of-box templates) to 24 hours (significant customization)

4. Transferring Work from Whiteboard to Projects Issues

Client does the transfer. Consultant supports and checks that the final result looks as expected.

Once the Jira projects are configured, stakeholders can convert all stickers into issues of the appropriate type and within the relevant project.
