Using a Service Catalog and CMDB to Standardize Change Management in Jira Service Management

A streamlined and optimized ITSM practice offers tremendous benefits to your IT teams and your entire organization. But, the vital ITSM practice of change management can still be challenging for many.

In our previous webinar in this series, we discussed how to best enable change management in adherence to the ITIL framework and using Jira Service Management (JSM). In this webinar, we take those ideas a step further by incorporating a service catalog and configuration management database as tools to help standardize the change management process and further minimize disruptions.

After watching this webinar, you’ll understand:

-The role of a Service Catalog in ITSM
-How to create and curate an effective Service Catalog
-How to build and manage a Configuration Management Database (CMDB)
-How to best leverage CMDB for service improvement

6 Common Challenges RTEs Face and How to Solve Them

Release Train Engineers (RTEs) have tremendous responsibility in a scaled Agile environment. After all Agile Release Trains (ARTs) can’t steer themselves.

But, RTEs also face significant challenges along the way. In this webinar, Cprime’s Ali Huda, Senior Enterprise Agility Consultant, discusses common challenges RTEs face and how they can be overcome using  SAFe® and Agile best practices, best-in-class tooling like Jira Align, and focused effort. We will also demo how Jira Align can help solve these challenges.

  • Lack of visibility into the full book of work

  • Lack of understanding of how much an ART can deliver over the course of a planning increment
  • Visibility into the Risks and Dependencies affecting an ART
  • Constant need to create and update roadmaps
  • Limited availability and customizability of progress report
