Report for November 2019

Achievements this Period

Project brief was approved
Comms and engagement plan was drafted and is being reviewed by sponsor
New BA assigned and WAM analysis completed
Proposed new College WAM distributed to Heads of Schools for review
Work is underway on the Application and Data Architecture document which will provide the board with the dataflow picture they requested
Initial analysis for the HR API work is underway which will enable an estimation of the work required to implement
Initial analysis underway for the TRAC code review deliverable

Issues

Although the issue raised last month about loss of BA to Core Systems programme has now been resolved, it has delayed the project by 3 weeks. This delay may be compounded by the industrial action as the Heads of School may not be able to complete College WAM review by the requested date.

Next Steps

Finalise comms and engagement plan and share with Board
Review Head of School responses to proposed College WAM due by 13th December
Finalise analysis and produce estimate for the HR API work (including BI team documenting issues/barriers with current manual process
Project milestones to be revised once Head of School responses have been reviewed and the level of variance is understood

Project Status

RAG Status

RAG Commentary: Time: The project's BA was reassigned to Core, resulting in a 3 week delay to the project. A new BA has been assigned and has concluded the work to produces a revised College WAM. As this was not issued until the industrial action had started, the project anticipates a further delay is likely
