Platform and migration

Measuring delivery without turning it into surveillance.

DX is a developer intelligence platform, now part of Atlassian, that measures developer experience and delivery performance across an engineering organization. Our work is connecting delivery measurement to the portfolio, and deciding what the data is used for.

DX measures developer experience and delivery performance. The governance question is what the data is used for, and that is decided before the first dashboard.

What it is

DX is a developer intelligence platform, now part of Atlassian, that measures developer experience and delivery performance across an engineering organization.

It is for organizations that want an honest read on delivery and are willing to answer, in advance, what happens to the numbers.

portfolio program program program the number survives the question because the trace exists L1 L2 L3 L4

What it does

It measures experience, not only output

Which is the distinction that decides whether teams trust it.

It reports across the organization

Useful at the portfolio level, and therefore governed at the portfolio level.

Where it fits

L2, platform and migration, feeding L3. Measurement of delivery is an input to portfolio governance. It only produces a trustworthy figure if the delivery data underneath it is consistent, which is the same prerequisite every roll-up has.

Agents and Automation

Rovo, Agents in Jira, Forge, MCP with Claude and Copilot, agent lifecycle, usage and cost governance.

What we do with it

Connecting it to the portfolio

Delivery measurement that feeds the same focus areas leadership already reports on.

Standardizing what feeds it

Consistent workflows and fields, because measurement over inconsistent data is confident and wrong.

Deciding what it is for

Whether this informs investment or evaluates individuals is the decision that determines adoption.

Where it earns its place

An organization arguing about delivery capacity

A measured baseline changes the conversation, provided everyone agreed in advance what it means.

A leadership team funding platform work

Developer experience is easiest to fund when its cost is visible.

Questions we get

Will engineers accept being measured?
Only if the purpose is stated first and holds. Measurement used for evaluation stops being accurate almost immediately.
Is this part of the Atlassian estate?
It is an Atlassian product with its own platform. Its own page is the definitive one.

Fixed scope. The assessment reads the estate as it is: instances, schemes, licensing, and the decisions a migration would force you to make anyway. You get the findings, the ownership gaps, and the order to close them in.
