Achievements this period

Use case identification is complete.  Draft Design Guidelines have been produced and read for syndication. This is required to be able to underpin user experience feedback to support user and business requirements gathering.

Communications & Marketing have created a new brand chapter for Digital Signage including branding and marketing guidelines.

Draft target operating models have been produced and will be published in due course.

The Current URL feed from timetabling has been assessed for continued use but with a new digital display template and content management application in line with EdGel design standards.

Design resource has been secured for the development of templates to support large screens owned by schools.  These design templates will be used to support standards and guidance.

A pilot for the use cases that support screens outside larger lecture rooms (medium sized screens 22") is underway in two locations within David Hume Tower and New College.  Good feedback has been received for these and a recommendation will be made  to adopt this design for full roll-out across the University.

The Technology product set has been identified to support the Timetabling data interface and this will become the proposed strategic direction for Digital Display Signage and will be incorporated into the service roadmap.

Strategy and roadmap planning is currently in progress considering Technology, Process and People streams.
