Project Management Software for Software Development Teams in Birmingham
Birmingham's software teams sit inside a wider mixed economy of manufacturing and professional services. ShipSprint's engineering boards get their status from what actually shipped, not from a status field someone forgot.
An engineering team next to teams that measure progress differently
A software team inside a Birmingham business often sits alongside an operations team measuring progress in units shipped and a professional services team billing by the hour, each with a very different idea of what "done" looks like. That mix means an engineering team's sprint board has to hold up on its own terms, since nobody nearby is going to double-check it the way another engineer might.
The usual failure is quiet: an engineer finishes a task, moves to the next one, and the card sits untouched in "in progress" because dragging it across the board wasn't the priority in the moment. By the time a burndown gets pulled up for a review, it's charting what got updated, not what got built.
ShipSprint closes that gap at the source. A branch tied to a card moves the card the moment work starts. A merged pull request closes it. Burndown and cycle-time analytics are calculated from that merge history directly, so the chart in a Monday review reflects the actual state of the codebase rather than the actual state of everyone's memory.
Built around merge history, not memory
The mechanics that keep an engineering board honest even when nobody in the building thinks in sprint points.
Open a branch tied to a card and it advances on the board automatically, no manual drag needed to show work has started.
A merged pull request closes its card on its own, so "done" on the board matches what actually shipped in the codebase.
Burndown and cycle-time analytics build themselves from actual merge history, not from a status someone remembered to click.
Per-column WIP limits and a triage inbox for new requests keep work planned against real capacity, whichever team is doing the planning.
Delivery forecasts are calculated from the team's own measured pace as sprints close, so a date at risk surfaces weeks early.
A sprint review that doesn't start with "let me check"
The usual sprint review opens with a lead tabbing between the board and GitHub, reconciling what the cards say against what actually merged, before the real conversation about the work can start. When the board takes its status from GitHub directly, that reconciliation step is gone before the meeting even begins.
A built-in wiki holds the reasoning a burndown chart can't: why an architecture decision got made, why an approach was ruled out weeks ago. Page history keeps that reasoning intact, and any sentence on a wiki page can become a task directly, useful when a decision made mid-review needs to turn into real work without being retyped somewhere else.
ShipSprint is built by Quantuva Technologies Pvt. Ltd., registered in India, and billed in rupees. That's a fact about where the company is based, not a claim about a local UK office or presence.
Questions from Birmingham dev teams
Any card linked to a GitHub branch moves and closes automatically as that branch progresses and its pull request merges. Cards not tied to a branch, planning tasks, spikes, discussions, still move the normal way, by drag or by direct update. See the product overview for how boards are set up.
No, and it's a deliberate design choice, not a setting you toggle off. No screenshots, no keystroke logging, no activity tracking. Only delivered work and hours logged by the person themselves. Scorecards are visible to the person they describe and adjusted for approved leave.
It's simply how an India-based company bills. ShipSprint is built by Quantuva Technologies Pvt. Ltd., and charges go through in INR, converted at your bank's rate at the time. We don't add or handle VAT on these charges, so check with your accountant how that's treated on your side.
