Remedyforce to JSM: A Specialist Atlassian Implementation Partner Completes Migration Leveraging Precision Bridge
When a specialist Atlassian implementation partner set out to migrate Service Request data from BMC Remedyforce into Jira Service Management (JSM), the project came with a structural requirement that standard tools could not solve: preserving the relationship between parent work items and their subtasks, together with all associated attachments. Standard CSV import does not support migrating attachments while preserving this hierarchy, so the partner turned to the Precision Bridge Data Migration and Management Platform to deliver a migration that CSV-based methods simply could not support.
Delivering the Migration
The partner used the Precision Bridge Data Migration and Management Platform to migrate parent work items and their subtasks as connected structures, attachments included. Precision Bridge's support team worked closely with the partner throughout the project to identify and map fields accurately, ensuring the hierarchy and historical context of every record carried through into the new environment intact.
The migration was completed within six weeks, with over 80,000 records, including all workflow notes, comments and attachments, migrated accurately and parent-subtask relationships fully preserved in JSM. The partner estimated that achieving the same outcome manually would have taken around a year, a timeline the Precision Bridge Data Migration and Management Platform reduced considerably while maintaining complete data integrity throughout.
"Migrating parent work items and subtasks with their attachments wasn't something CSV import could handle. Precision Bridge's team was extremely helpful in mapping the fields correctly, and their support throughout meant we completed the migration successfully with everything preserved." — Senior Developer, Specialist Atlassian Implementation Partner.
Looking Ahead
This project adds to a growing track record between the partner and Precision Bridge, with further migration engagements already underway.
