Monthly Report - October 2019

Report Date
October 2019

Project start delayed. Project was expected to start on recruitment of a Project Manager.  PM role offered, with start date December 2019 - transfer from SEP.

SEP have subsequently requested a 3 moth notice period, which means a start date of end Jan '20 for this project.  This puts significant risk onto EBIS decommissioning activity, and may affect Estates ability to align with Core Systems timescales for process, integrations and data requirements
