Transforming engineering efficiency & productivity

As VP, Engineering & Technology PMO at Blue Yonder, Ellen Yudt faced the complex challenge of measuring the success of engineering teams through spreadsheets which was a manual and time consuming process. “We lacked insight into what it took to keep the lights on. With Jellyfish, we’re able to proactively plan for sufficient capacity,” Ellen shared.

Ellen describes Jellyfish as a game-changer, particularly when it comes to resource allocation. The insights are incredibly powerful, she notes. The platform delves into the intricacies of team dynamics, providing precise data on delivery progress. This comprehensive visibility enables Blue Yonder’s teams to efficiently plan and allocate resources, effectively reserving the necessary capacity for maintaining system operations—a task previously swamped by uncertainty.

Jellyfish has helped our leaders gain insights into engineering details that were previously unavailable. The ability to view insights at the portfolio level or drill into any level of the taxonomy is very powerful.

Upleveling engineering decision making

By illuminating areas once in shadow—those critical keeping the lights on activities—Jellyfish has empowered proactive planning centered around tangible data. Setting driver budgets and goals has become an integral facet of Ellen’s use case for Jellyfish. The ability to track actuals against targets ensures that departments remain aligned with broader business strategies throughout project lifecycles.

This factual data fosters trust across departments—not just within engineering—bridging previously existing gaps and nurturing collaborative foresight. “Jellyfish has completely transformed the way I oversee engineering projects. The platform’s ability to provide detailed insights into team dynamics and project progress is exceptionally powerful. I love how Jellyfish gives me the visibility I need to optimize our resources effectively and stay aligned with our strategic goals,” she shared. For Ellen and her team at Blue Yonder, embracing Jellyfish transcended mere operational enhancements; it fostered a culture of informed innovation built to thrive in a fast-changing software industry.

The transparency Jellyfish offers is unmatched, allowing us to make informed decisions and drive innovation.
