Herzum becomes part of catworkx and TIMETOACT

Cologne/Chicago, 17 July 2025 catworkx, part of TIMETOACT GROUP and the leading Atlassian Enterprise Integration Partner in the DACH region, is expanding its international presence through a strategic merger with Herzum.

Application Lifecycle Management (ALM)

Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) at catworkx fulfills all requirements from the development and support of applications to the entire lifecycle of an application using Atlassian tools. ALM also includes comprehensive user support and further development of the application. The four-phase model (analysis, implementation, testing and roll-out) has proved its worth at catworkx.

Why Application Lifecycle Management with Atlassian solutions?

  • Create transparency in your DevOps processes
  • Support agile and classic methodologies with one tool platform
  • Increase planning reliability right from the release planning stage
  • Ensure quality in software development through integration with Bitbucket
  • Save time during code review with Bitbucket pull requests
  • Replace outdated or cost-intensive tool solutions

What will you receive from catworkx?

  • Summary of the objectives, road map and cost estimate in a project profile
  • Tested and evaluated requirements as part of a functionalities matrix
  • Iterative modeling of your requirements on a prototype system
  • Connection of a user directory service (e.g. Active Directory)
  • Scalable configuration of the Atlassian tools & apps
  • Conception & transfer of data from legacy systems
  • Interfaces to external systems (e.g. OTRS, SVN, GIT, etc.)
  • Consulting and support from piloting to roll-out

How does catworkx proceed?

  • In four phases - Analysis, Implementation, Test and Roll-Out

  • Keep control – reliably control which features can be delivered on the planned date

  • Modeling primarily in the standard

  • Apps, if multi-value

  • Customizing, if unavoidable

  • Iterative and partnership-based
