Section One: Programme Commentary, RAG and Resources Update

Overall Programme RAG: GREEN

The programme remains overall on course to deliver its projects, more or less as planned.

A contingency of  11 days remains available to the programme, and the recommendation is to keep this to to allow some 15/16 project to start early and for increases to projects such as INF108. Overall, the programme is within budget.

The project to follow on from INF107 is now to start in 15/16 due to lack of project managers, which is later than originally planned. There are a number of actions from the INF104 for the programme to progress. These are listed in a dedicated page. https://www.projects.ed.ac.uk/programmepage/30193. The next programme meeting will review and decide if these actions are still required, but we expect them all to close in this year.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Section Two: Projects Not Started  

Project InfoProgramme Manager's Commentary

System Monitoring Solution - Implementation

 

Depending on the outcome of the INF107 project, this may be a procurement or an in-house build.

The project effort for this year is 50 days, but this is a multi-year project over three years. It is unlikely we wil sue these 50 days.

This project will start in June, if the recommendations are accepted by management.
