Weave Together Team Execution, Data, & Organizational Goals
Agile transformation doesn’t introduce new issues; it exposes existing ones. One of the most glaring concerns, especially at scale, is the disconnect between what teams are creating and what leadership is expecting.
Jira Align takes all the data stored in the tools teams are using already and brings it together. When properly configured for an organization that is ready, Jira Align gives you the clarity and confidence to deliver the right thing to the right people at the right time.
Visibility into your teams' aggregated data
Alignment to strategy at the team level
Insight into how funding ties to delivered value
Clear picture of dependencies
Understanding of where capacity is constrained
Improved coordination between teams
From Vision to Reality with Atlassian Focus

Improve Your Agile Organization With the Power of Jira Align
To close the gap between strategy and execution, people spend hours, days, and weeks on spreadsheets, presentations, and ad hoc reporting. But something still gets lost in translation as the c-suite tries to communicate strategy to delivery teams, and then lost again when delivery teams try to communicate progress back up to the c-suite.
Find out how Jira Align helps to bridge the divide.
