All Milestones have been completed

RAG

BLUE

Report by Lee-Ann Simpson for July  2018

Achievements

 

  • Infrastructure Build Complete Milestone achieved – We now have a ‘Production Ready’ Enterprise Data Warehouse;
  • Deployment Checklist completed;
  • Go CAB approved deployment to LIVE environment for Production;
  • Parameritisation completed and pushed out to environments

Issues 

  • Security Patch applied to DEV which locked the container to all users.  DEV had to be rolled back which caused a delay to EST109 development.  Security patch has been applied to TEST and LIVE and will be applied to DEV once EST109 demonstrations have been completed;
  • Some items within DTI006 have been descoped and will be carried across to DTI021 (EDW Embed and Optimise) for completion

Next Steps 

  • EDW Implementation to completed before EDW is deployed on the 16th July;
  • TAD to be signed off by CISO;
  • DSOR to be completed;
  • Parameritisation documentation to be completed.

The project showing as BLUE as the project was closed on 3rd August 2018.

Achievements

  • Version 2 of toolkit signed off 31 July 18

Issues

  • Because of annual leave delivery review not able to take place until 31 July
  • Closure report with project sponsor but service management want the toolkit reviewed as part of project and not BAU so we can t close project just now
