Mingle Resources


Software Delivery Simplified to Agile Project Management

When your project tool supports, captures and visualizes all team activity, it is easy to keep track of status and make real-time decisions. With Mingle, Agile Project Management is a natural off-shoot of Project Collaboration: plan, manage and report based on what team members are really doing, and mitigate delivery risk.


Customizable Project Properties and Templates

Mingle recognizes that your team has a unique way of working (honed on many projects), and adapts itself to it, rather than dictate a process of its own. Use customizable properties such as “Owner”, “Effort Estimate” and “Expected date of completion” to define the structure of your project. Create a customized card wall view based on those properties, and assign tasks to team members by simply dragging and dropping across swim lanes.

Jumpstart projects using built-in templates (XP, Scrum, Agile Hybrid) and/or by importing tasks from Microsoft Excel.

Workflows

Automate project workflow with the use of transitions (such as “Ready for Development” and “Testing complete”), which can trigger off a series of related changes such as the "Owner" property. Ensure compliance by requiring team members to modify certain properties (e.g. Status) only through transitions.

Powerful Reporting Tools

Use any property you have created, and develop custom reports and charts (such as burn-down and velocity) to reflect project progress.
