CSM360 is strongly oriented toward digitization of all business activities, enabling constant optimization through control and measurability, for high quality of services delivered to customers.

The challenge

The main challenge has been to create an ad-hoc product that includes all the developments so far implemented on Jira by Mind-Mercatis and all the KPIs made by CSM360 in the form of a marketable app for all circumscribed realities in the same context.

The project

The powerful base of Atlassian's JIRA CRM with extensive customization was chosen to implement the project. The final product was appreciated and considered excellent by the client, as well as implemented in a few months.

Following a technical and strategic analysis with Mind-Mercatis, customization of JIRA's CRM enabled the creation of a unique product, "JIRA360." The software to date supports the client as a B.I. tool where Dashboards can be created and displayed to CSM360 clients in real time.

In addition, proprietary software was developed in house: this required different development time but, thanks to the Jira360 solution, it was possible for CSM360 to develop the Portal Solution 360 tool, in which the in-house tool is fully integrated with JIRA. Communication between the two environments takes place in real time in total security, allowing CSM360 to take full advantage of the technologies of each.

Mind-Mercatis then provided support in the selection of plugins to be used on JIRA (more than 15 currently) and for preventive maintenance of a System that continues to grow both in terms of the data used and the users who use it.

The strategy

A unique tool

CSM360 in the early days of the project had a mission to innovate the Fleet management industry, and to do so required first of all finding Partners with a strong connotation in the future of solutions in their DNA.

Choosing the ideal solution to implement innovative tools is of paramount importance. Therefore, following a technical and strategic analysis between Mindmercatis and CSM360, exploring possibilities and capabilities of the solutions, the options to be evaluated with relative divergent time and cost were:

  1. Building from scratch a system
  2. Customizing the existing system

The realization of a partnership between Mind-Mercatis and CSM360 I resulted in a project to develop a highly customized product.

CSM360 has innovated a specific field that is still unique at the European level.

The results

The collaboration continues with mutual satisfaction by overcoming the resistance of "always done it this way" patterns and habits often found in stakeholder supply chains:

  • Automatic and scheduled extraction of all information needed to compile Jira fields required for building dashboards and reports
  • Control over business tools and scalability of tools
  • Highly innovative service proposition for CSM360 clients

Recently, integration was made with the ERP TeamSystem Gamma Enterprise for automation of the active and passive cycle.
