Aha! vs Jira for release planning, capacity and roadmaps: features, pricing and a migration path to an Atlassian-only stack with no sync to maintain.
Plan, forecast, staff and report inside Atlassian. How Jira, Jira Product Discovery, Confluence and a Forge-native roadmap tool replace external planning software.
An issue log owns the fix. It never says how many days an open issue costs the committed release date. How to read that number at every review.
How to calculate sprint capacity for hybrid and distributed government teams: available days, allocation, on-site obligations, and velocity per available day.
A schedule management plan is written before the confidence vote and decides how a slip gets noticed. Write its control thresholds in days against the committed date.
Story points or hours? For most government teams: points for work, person-days for capacity, velocity to connect them. A worked example and five steps.
Project scope management is six processes. Five finish before or at the confidence vote. Only control scope runs after it, and it never says what a change costs the committed date in days.
Holidays, training, and leave quietly shrink a sprint. A five-step days-off framework and a 49-person-day worked example for government teams.
Resource constraints are named at planning: the shared specialist, the booked environment, the planned leave. The list never changes. The constraint does, and that is what moves the committed date. Read it in days.
A five-sprint ramp for government teams new to agile: measure available days, compare plan to reality, and commit from real capacity.
