Why start with Platform Discovery?

Most organisations do not know what they do not know about their Atlassian environment. In 30 minutes we assess your environment and show you exactly where to focus.

Hidden inefficiencies

Workflows that could be automated and fields that nobody uses, quietly slowing your teams down.

Configuration risks

Permissions that are broader than they need to be, and access that should have been retired.

Unrealised potential

AI capabilities not yet activated and integrations not yet connected across your toolset.

Technical debt

Legacy configuration that has accumulated over time and now slows everything down.

No obligation. No sales pitch. Just an honest assessment.

What we assess

During Platform Discovery we review your Atlassian environment across the dimensions that move the needle.

Area What we look at
Usage patterns How teams are actually using the platform, and where the bottlenecks sit.
Permissions and access Whether access is right-sized and aligned to how your teams work.
Performance Whether the platform is running optimally, and any slowdowns or issues.
Configuration health Scheme sprawl, unused fields, and redundant workflows.
AI readiness Whether Atlassian Intelligence is activated, and where the opportunity is.
Integration status Whether your tools are connected and data is flowing correctly.
Quick wins The improvements that will deliver immediate value.

How it works

Four steps from booking to a written assessment, with our pit-crew response model throughout.

01

Book your session

5 minutes. Schedule a 30-minute session. We send a brief pre-call questionnaire.

02

Environment access

Before the call. Grant temporary read-only access. We review before we meet.

03

Discovery session

30 minutes. We walk through our findings together: what is working, what is not, and where the opportunities are.

04

Your assessment

Within 48 hours. A written summary of quick wins, recommendations, and suggested next steps.

What you get

After Platform Discovery you walk away with a clear, written picture of your environment.

Quick win list: immediate improvements we have identified.
Configuration review: any gaps or risks we have found.
Optimisation opportunities: where your platform could perform better.
AI readiness summary: whether you are ready for Atlassian Intelligence.
Recommended next steps: a clear path forward, whether that is us or DIY.

All of this is free. No strings attached.

What happens next?

After Platform Discovery you have options, with no pressure to choose any of them.

Do it yourself

Take our recommendations and implement them internally. We are happy to help you succeed, even if that means working independently.

Frequently asked questions

Can't find what you need? Visit our Support Centre or contact us.

Is Platform Discovery really free?
Yes, completely free. No hidden fees and no obligation. We believe a free assessment builds trust and leads to better partnerships.
How long does Platform Discovery take?
The session is 30 minutes. We do the pre-work before the call by reviewing your environment with read-only access, and you receive a written summary within 48 hours.
What if you don't find anything?
Unlikely, but possible. If your environment is already optimised, we will tell you. We will not manufacture problems to justify work.
What access do you need?
Read-only access to your Atlassian environment. We do not change anything during Platform Discovery. We observe and assess.
Do I have to buy anything after Platform Discovery?
No. Many organisations take our recommendations and implement them internally. We are genuinely happy when that happens.
How is Foundation different from a regular consulting project?
Foundation is designed as a get-to-know-you engagement. It is structured to deliver immediate value while building the foundation for an ongoing partnership, rather than a one-time project that disappears.

What our customers say about us

Enterprise teams across financial services, advertising, and consumer health trust Design Industries to scale their platforms with precision.

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.
Matt Lecchi
Global IT Operations Manager · Swisse Wellness
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.
Dave Keating
Chief Operating Officer · Clemenger BBDO
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.
