Stop leaving Rovo switched on and underused. Design Industries delivers end-to-end Rovo deployments across Jira, Confluence, and JSM, with the precision of a Formula One pit crew and the compliance your organisation demands.
Rovo is included at no additional cost with Atlassian Premium and Enterprise plans. But being included and being properly implemented are two very different things. Most organisations are using less than 10% of Rovo's capability.
Activating Rovo without a clear plan leads to poor search relevance, low user engagement, and value that never gets realised. Organisations that self-activate see adoption rates 40 to 50% lower than those with guided implementation.
Australian enterprises face specific obligations: data residency requirements, APRA frameworks, and Essential Eight controls. These need to be built in from day one, not retrofitted after activation when fixing them becomes costly and disruptive.
Without solid Confluence architecture and metadata in place, Rovo's AI answers will be unreliable. Without agent governance, sprawl becomes a real risk. The gap between turning Rovo on and getting genuine value is where most organisations lose months.
Like a championship pit stop, our Rovo deployment follows a precise, repeatable sequence refined across Australian enterprise environments.
Every phase has a clear deliverable. Every week moves you closer to measurable ROI.
Current Atlassian environment audit, Confluence content quality and structure review, integration landscape mapping, data residency and compliance check, and identification of 3 to 5 high-value use cases with the fastest path to ROI.
Organisation-wide Rovo activation, AI access controls and permissions configuration, data residency alignment to Australian requirements, Guard integration for enterprise security posture, and compliance documentation prepared for internal sign-off.
Atlassian product connectors (Jira, Confluence, JSM, Bitbucket), third-party connectors (Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, Slack, GitHub, Figma), search relevance tuning and testing, and analytics configuration to track search effectiveness across all platforms.
Multi-channel Rovo Chat activation across Jira, Confluence, and browser extension, pre-built agent deployment (Service Triage, Request Helper, Ops Guide), custom agent development for organisation-specific workflows, and chat-to-action configuration.
Content audit and gap analysis, information architecture restructuring for AI readability, metadata and taxonomy alignment, permissions review to ensure AI respects access controls, and archiving of outdated material that degrades answer quality.
Role-based training for end users, power users, and administrators, agent governance framework with creation policies and approval workflows, Community of Practice establishment, and monthly effectiveness reviews with adoption and ROI metrics.

Guided Rovo implementation consistently outperforms self-managed activation across every key metric.
Figures below are drawn from Atlassian published research, Atlassian partner implementation data, and DI client engagements.
Users are 60% more successful finding information with Rovo Search compared to leading open-source enterprise search tools. Teams spend less time hunting across disconnected platforms and more time acting on what they find.

Atlassian's own early adopter data shows 1 to 2 hours saved per week through Rovo, with partner implementations achieving up to 30 minutes per user per day once unified search is fully configured. At scale, that compounds into significant productivity recovery across the organisation.

ITSM agents handle routine requests automatically, triage, access requests, onboarding queries, deflecting repetitive tickets before they reach your service desk team. DI's own client engagements have identified redirect rates of 25–37% as the primary operational inefficiency that Rovo agents directly address.

Guided implementation delivers measurably better adoption compared to self-managed activation. Change management, role-based training, and governance built in from day one keeps users engaged long after go-live. Over 78% of Rovo Search users report it as the best search experience they've had, but only when it's properly implemented.

Rovo's AI answer quality is directly tied to how well Confluence content is structured. Following a dedicated Confluence optimisation phase (information architecture, metadata alignment, permissions, and content hygiene), AI accuracy improves measurably. DI client engagements confirm fragmented Confluence structure as the single biggest barrier to effective Rovo deployment.

Our six-phase methodology is designed to deliver visible, measurable outcomes within 4 to 6 weeks of kick-off. Every phase has a clear deliverable. Every week moves you closer to value. Atlassian partner data consistently shows organisations without a structured methodology take 3 to 6 months to reach the same outcomes, if they get there at all.

We've been implementing Rovo since its initial release.
That practical experience across real Australian enterprise environments gives our team a depth that most partners are only now beginning to build.
We've been implementing Rovo since its initial release, before most Australian partners had even begun exploring it. That head start translates directly into fewer surprises and faster deployments for your organisation.
APRA, Essential Eight, and data residency requirements aren't afterthoughts for us, they're standard inclusions in every implementation. We understand what Australian enterprises need to operate confidently in the cloud.
Our DI Configuration Patterns have been deployed across environments from 500 to 35,000 users, including tier-1 Australian enterprises. The same patterns that work for large organisations are what we bring to every engagement.
Through DI AI Foundry, our R&D capability extends beyond Rovo. We help organisations think holistically about AI adoption across their full tool ecosystem, so your Atlassian AI investment connects to a broader strategy.
Every engagement is staffed by senior consultants. You get direct access to the people doing the work, at mid-market rates. Not a rotating cast of juniors. Not Big 4 pricing. Just experienced practitioners focused on your outcomes.
Rovo implementation transitions naturally into Digital Factory, our managed service for continuous AI optimisation, new agent development, and ongoing platform evolution. The engagement doesn't end at go-live.

"Design Industries are dynamic and great at tailoring Atlassian. We've worked with them for years; I'm always confident they can support our development with enthusiasm, professionalism and benchmark support."
"Michael and the Design Industries team have done an incredible job managing the scope and stand-up of our Atlassian instance. The rigour and detail in their process and documentation is incredible."
"We reduced a number of tools across regions that caused miscommunication and inefficiency, bringing everyone into a single platform. By using the DI Configuration Patterns, we rapidly scaled Atlassian from 500 to 7,000 users, at the bare minimum doubling the efficiency of our teams, who are working on core bank payment systems such as our .com."
Start with a readiness review, run the implementation, and walk away with Rovo configured in your tenant, a documented use-case register, and a 30-day adoption roadmap.
A free Rovo assessment is the first step. We review your Atlassian environment, scope your highest-value use case, and confirm a clear next step before you commit to anything.
