  • Yamaha Applications Support Desk (SD) captures all requests from end-users, who experience difficulties with their day-to-day use of IT applications. These items are validated, then if valid resolved as soon as possible.
  • Yamaha IS Projects (YIS) captures all work of scrum teams in the Agile Transformation. These processes are being streamlined to support scrum processes, and make Jira a tool for collaboration more than administration.
  • B2C-Apps (B2C) captures all work for B2C /EPAM team(s) working with waterfall methodology. Processes are being streamlined with new Yamaha way of working.
  • Yamaha Portfolio Board (YPM) collects all ideas for IT initiatives, and validates the business case and expected rewards for implementing such initiatives before assigning work to development teams. It's very much about preparing work.
  • Other projects capture work for teams that have not yet joined the Agile Transformation.

...

Beforehand it is not known if a database correction or program change is required, to prevent delay in resolving reported requests the users manager is automatically added to the request (Jira issue/ticket).
YME and distributor users are directly synchronized in Jira with Active directory including users manager. The users manager is added via a automation after request creation. 
Active directory is maintained by Servicedesk.

Yamaha Applications Support Desk (SD)


In Yamaha Applications Support Desk all operational support (BAU- Business As Usual) requests are registered that relates to IT Application Issues/errors for existing functionality, data correction and authorization requests.

...

More detailed documentation for this project can be found under  Jira training for Yamaha Applications Support Desk (SD).

Change Advisory Board (CAB)

Change advisory Board (CAB) workflow is used for approval of fixes and creation of a functional/technical conceptional design document.

This project will be phased out as Bugfix issues can be created in the software delivery projects directly via the SD Workflow.
Changes, improvements should be requested via creation of a Project  by a YME Portfolio Board Manager via the Jira training for Information Systems.

CAB Issue types

One of the two following conditions must be met to create a CAB issue.

...

Under the SD issue the reporter and requested participants can be informed about the change applied/ to be applied but is also used to collect information from the requester.

CAB Workflow

Function design (FD) and Technical design (TD) documents can be found in Confluence under space  Functional Conceptional Designs.
At the main page instructions can be found how a Functional/Technical Conceptional Design document can be created (via standardized template).

Note

Designs are no longer documented under the Functional Conceptional Designs but under YPM Project and Programme documentation 


Yamaha Portfolio Board (YPM)

Before work is ready for development, any idea for software development is first vetted by the portfolio management, to understand whether the proposal is of strategic value to YME.
Once it is agreed that the idea should be implemented, a selection of what to do first is made based on business case, priority, and urgency. This way we ensure that time is spent on the most valuable topics.
In Jira these ideas are created within Jira-Project Yamaha Portfolio Board (YPM)

Jira Training documentation can be found under: Jira training for Yamaha Portfolio Planning (YPM).
