Case Study: Autodesk achieves engineering standardization and centralized planning with Jira Software

Autodesk standardizes on Jira across engineering teams

Autodesk, a leader in 3D design, engineering, and entertainment software with more than 100 products and over 2,000 software engineers, struggled with inconsistent development processes and documentation across more than 100 engineering teams. That fragmentation made it difficult to maintain effective process flows and get a unified view of work across the organization.

Autodesk standardized on Jira (and Confluence) beginning in 2007 to plan and track sprints, manage changes and beta feedback, and centralize project documentation. By extending Jira with custom workflows and third‑party apps, the company has logged more than one million issues while maintaining stability and performance, gained centralized visibility via dashboards and reports, and improved coordination and reporting across global teams.
