Atlassian acquires AgileCraft to scale agile to the enterprise

Announced on the Atlassian blog:

“We’re excited to share we’ve entered into an agreement to acquire AgileCraft, a leader in enabling scaled agile transformations. Many Atlassian customers, including AT&T, Anthem, NCR, TIAA, and Duke Energy trust AgileCraft to scale their teams’ agile practices.

AgileCraft: Scaling agile to drive outcomes in the digital enterprise

AgileCraft brings together the teamwork happening across an organization into an all-encompassing view that connects strategy, work, and outcomes. And because large-scale technology initiatives are increasingly complex, this visibility, context, and alignment are essential.

AgileCraft navigates this complexity and helps organizations to scale agile by unifying and synchronizing the work happening across programs and portfolios for a clear executive-level view. At the same time, agile teams can continue to use their preferred tools, like Jira and Trello, to move quickly and deliver the best customer outcomes. AgileCraft also supports another key variable in the scaled agile equation—proven frameworks that can be customized to meet each organization’s needs. AgileCraft supports SAFe, LeSS, Spotify, and a number of other scaled agile frameworks.

The rich information summarized in AgileCraft provides teams with greater situational awareness, including strategic context that helps everyone understand shifts in priorities in real time. With AgileCraft, leaders can examine their entire business to assess where they should be making strategic bets, like adding 10% more funding to a mobile project that’s showing strong initial results, or dialing back on an integration initiative that’s not generating the forecasted customer value.

Unlocking the potential of teams at enterprise scale

Thousands of customers have trusted Atlassian to provide the tools and practices to transform software development and embrace agile in all of its forms. Adding AgileCraft to our existing family of agile products increases the breadth and depth of agile teams we can support. We’re committed to supporting you at each stage on your agile journey; whether it’s a single team using Jira Software to get aligned and track progress; Portfolio for Jira for cross-project visibility; or AgileCraft to help connect company strategy to customer outcomes. Together, Atlassian and AgileCraft provide a unified solution for team-level and enterprise-level agile, with tools that are beloved by development teams and able to scale to meet the diverse needs of enterprise organizations.

On behalf of all Atlassians and our customers, we’re thrilled to welcome the AgileCraft team to Atlassian. We will continue to offer AgileCraft as a standalone service as we work together to build solutions that can unlock the potential of teams at scale.
