Progress made on developing the mobile app for ID on phone with basic structure created
Apps Software Developer has set up emulator on PC for proof of concept on desktop as per development pathway
Issues
Development Service Resource Coordinator re-negotiated Apps Software Developer time to meet needs of a MyEd high priority project on 27 June: this caused suspension of developer work to 12 July from which point resource will be committed full time to USI016
Requirements from Apps Development Technology have been identified by Apps Software Developer: server for displaying the user interface on the phone; server for microservice to fetch data
Resources from Apps Development Technology are not scheduled: advice is resources cannot be committed unless conflict for time
Proof of concept to deploy to Dev/Test for testing by select users is in doubt
Further steps after UAT would be needed: deploy to Live (UI/Microservice), set up Apple/Google account and complete process to publish the mobile app
Next Steps
Apps Software Developer to work full time on USI016 from 12 July.
Detailed requirements for Dev/Tech are to be provided by Apps Software Developer to Mark Lang/Gillian Henderson for review.
Raise conflict for Dev/Tech resource.
Reallocate projected underspend of £1710 for USI016 for Dev/Tech work; or return to Innovation Programme if unspent.
