CADS alongside Jira

Jira tracks work and SLAs; CADS holds closure standards on the incident case.

Concept

Side by side

Your engineers keep creating and transitioning issues in Jira. CADS captures the investigation narrative and closure posture so “Done” on the board aligns with what leaders and auditors expect from production work.

Application

What the Jira link does

  • Keeps the Jira issue as the work-tracking home; CADS links the case to that ticket id.
  • Captures structured decisions and evidence beside the issue — not buried in comment threads.
  • Evaluates closure readiness against workspace policy before “Done” is something leadership can trust.
  • Supports machine-to-machine closure proof beside Jira; not an in-ticket plugin that replaces your workflow.
