Taskmill helps SSA Digi on their journey to become agile using the Scrum framework. We organised modular Scrum Master and Product Owner training for the product development organisation. To allow people to digest what they learned and immediately apply their knowledge in their work, we held 2-3 hour training sessions weekly.
After the first module, the feedback to our lead trainer Raija Harle was: “Wow, this was not just training, but we also got solutions to our product development problems and issues thanks to the great discussions!”
We interviewed CEO Mauricio Martinez after the training sessions, and he said that a lot has changed in a short time: “We quickly saw improvements in how developers learned to focus on the right things, and we have been able to prioritise our customers’ needs better. From a huge list of requirements, we have been able to focus on the functionalities that bring the most benefit to our customers. This way, we have been able to deliver a valuable application to our customers more efficiently.”
“Teams have also understood that focusing on the most important functionalities does not mean compromising on quality or not delivering non-functional things, but rather leaving out ‘nice-to-have’ functionalities. Teams have now become real teams, where commitment is no longer just a buzzword but visible in the team’s work. Our developers are committed to delivering the right solution to our customers, on time and with quality. They now understand how our customers gain added value from our product.” Maurizio continues.

In 2010, two visionaries, Mauricio and Teemu Saari, realised that most of a designer’s routine work could be automated. This automation freed up time for actual design work and the creation of important innovations. From the elimination of routines, Ihme3D – now known as SSA Digi, a subsidiary of SSA Group – was born. After years of work, a comprehensive automation and digitalisation solution, Cielo, was finally developed in 2014.
