Why Blueprint
Benefits Achieved with Blueprint

Benefits Achieved with Blueprint

Elekta plans to continue investing in their Agile framework. This includes creating a greater connection between Blueprint and other legacy tools to assist with their test case and intake management processes.
Easily Manage Incoming Work
Blueprint will be used in approximately 30 teams where intake management plays a big role in delegation and team structure.
Replace Outdated Approaches
They traditionally relied heavily on outdated document-based processes which will be transitioned to Blueprint.
Measure Employee Productivity
They intend to use Blueprint’s reuse capabilities to identify key performance indicators that show improvement in new activities compared to old ones.
Challenges Faced before Blueprint

Challenges Faced

Elekta operates within a highly regulated industry, making it essential for them to meet applicable compliance regulations and standards while ensuring quality. A big part of this was controlling their software development and overall product development practices.
Wasted Time & Resources
Microsoft Word was heavily relied upon to create and manage product requirements, leading to wasted resources & additional rework.
Lack of Alignment & Consistency
They struggled to consistently define product functionality on a global scale, making it difficult to prioritize new projects until old ones were completed. This affected time-to-market delivery and increased overhead costs.
Lack of Team Collaboration
Prior to Blueprint, they were challenged to create an interactive work environment leading to knowledge gaps between teams. This stalled future project development since information was not properly transferred across the global organization.

Collaboration & Workflow Management
Blueprint assisted them in breaking projects down to small tasks, improving team collaboration with a shared requirements repository. They were able to use Agile principles to maximize efficiency and create a shared vision for their products and the organization.
Traceability & System Integration
With traceability, they were easily able to maintain, verify, and validate their electronic processes for product requirements while easily integrating with HP ALM and cloud-hosting options.
