Project Management Software for Software Development Teams in Chennai

Planned for ten, finished six

Most development teams know the pattern. Sprint planning fills the board to what the team feels it can do. Then production issues arrive, a teammate takes two days of leave nobody accounted for, a review sits for three days, and at the sprint review the team carries over almost half the work. Next sprint, the same plan is made again.

The cause is rarely effort. It's that planning uses guesses where it could use measurements: guessed capacity instead of the actual days people are in, guessed velocity instead of what was really finished, and an assumption that nothing unplanned will happen.

ShipSprint is built to replace each of those guesses with something recorded as the team works.

Three guesses, three measurements

What "done" means. On Team and up, cards follow GitHub: a branch moves its card, and a merged pull request closes it. Done on the board is the same as merged in the repository, so the count at the end of the sprint is the real one, not what people remembered to drag.

How fast the team goes. On Business, delivery forecasts come from the velocity measured as each sprint closes. If the team reliably finishes about two-thirds of what it plans, the forecast says so, and the next plan can be set to match. Leads get a date they can give the business without padding it by hand.

What interrupts. Give unplanned work its own column with a WIP limit, fed from the triage inbox. Production bugs and urgent requests still get done, but the board shows how much of the sprint they took. A lane that is full every sprint is a sign to plan less feature work, not to work later.

Sprint capacity around Pongal and the festival season

Pongal in January is the big regional festival in Tamil Nadu. A sprint that spans it has fewer working days, and capacity planning on Team and up subtracts approved leave and public holidays so the commitment shrinks to match. Diwali and Holi need the same adjustment. Because regional festivals differ from state to state, colleagues from other states may be off on days your office is open; once their leave is entered, the plan counts it.

If your team works some Saturdays, plan sprints on the week you really work rather than a standard five days.

There's no surveillance in any of this. ShipSprint has no screenshots, keystroke logging or activity tracking. On Business, scorecards are based on delivered work and self-logged hours, adjusted for leave, and each developer sees their own.

Using ShipSprint from Chennai: four practical points

Who you're buying from. ShipSprint is built by Quantuva Technologies Pvt. Ltd. in Hyderabad. You're invoiced in rupees with GST, and support comes by email and in-app chat.

Time zones. We're on IST like your team, and support replies usually arrive the same working day. Connect GitHub during the trial at the start of a sprint, so the first full sprint already runs on the synced board.

Billing. Per-seat billing in rupees runs through Razorpay. Prices exclude GST; the GST-compliant invoice supports input-tax credit with a valid GSTIN.

Data protection. Stack traces, logs and test fixtures pasted into cards can carry personal data, which is covered by the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023. Go through the sub-processor list and the security overview and check them against your obligations and client contracts.
