Report by Susan McKeown for August 2015

• Project started and Project Brief approved on 14 August 2015
• Protoype was delivered to HR which helped refine requirements
• Development of calculator was completed
• Peer testing was completed
• EQiA was completed and published
• UAT was completed

• The HR Pages migration to EdWeb LIVE by project UWP010 has been rescheduled to November so the delivery milestone for the calculator had to be rescheduled to the end of November. This delay is being used as an opportunity to get feedback on the calculator from a wider stakeholder group for any minor improvements or finessing of language they recommend. Also, if the new pay scales are agreed by November, as expected, the calculator will go live with the new payscales.

• Make any final improvements
• Insert approved image for LIVE calculator
• Update payscales information
• Deploy
• Close
