Commentary
The CSCE Programme / Portfolio is overall GREEN, as all started projects are now delivered and closed and there are proposed projects for the remaining 58 days.
Please note that the project RAG status is following the revised guidelines: A one-page summary of the IS RAG status indicators is available on this page.
SCE007, Digitising Scotland Planning: This project has delivered and is now closed.
SCE008, University Seminar Site Enhancements: This project has delivered and is now closed.
SCE009, Virtual Edinburgh Scoping: This project has delivered and is now closed. IS continue to support the University's Virtual Edinburgh project through both providing PM Consultancy and support and through work being completed under Innovation project API017 Virtual Edinburgh Foundations which is being funded by the University's CIO. Colleagues can follow this project's progress on its website.
AP56-034 Ring Fenced Allocation for CSCE: Please see section two, Projects Not Started, for proposed use of remaining ring-fenced days in 15/16.
ResourcesThe agreed budget is 158 days. This reflects the addition of 25 sponsor funded days for SCEP02 Virtual Edinburgh PM Consultancy and Support and a 3 day decrease in sponsor funded days for the SCE007 Digitising Scotland Planning project.
Please see PRICCL 31 for the Mid-Year position of the Programme.
RAG & Forward Look
Notes on Current Plans for 16/17
- The work on the Chemistry Scientific Instrument Management Business Case in 14/15 has found that if the recommendations are followed then no work from IS Applications would be needed in 15/16, however potential integration work with Finance and Grouper may be needed in 16/17.
- As the University Seminar Site is still in pilot phase, and will be until summer 2016, time must be set aside in 16/17 to either turn the pilot into a full service with proper documentation and agreed support levels, or to decommission the site.

AP56-034 15/16 Ring Fenced Allocation for CSCE GREEN | There is now expected to be a matching demand for the SCE Ring-Fenced days in 15/16 to availability. It is likely that the Athena SWAN implementation project would take up the Ring-Fenced allocation. Other work may be done where supplementary funding is agreed.
