Next Steps

• Milestones to end of GEN to be planned
• All issues to be resolved with GEN and migrate to TEST
• Integration completed and UAT started

RAG Commentary

Setting project to RED

Issue. There are problems found with some application when testing GEN DEV post migration to DEV. These required development input which is resourced to investigate and resolve. Other problems were encountered that required time to diagnose and resolve and document for migration to TEST.

Project is RED due to milestones needing revised.
