Achievements in Last Period
- PM and Project Sponsor held a call with FNS about service issues and the proposed additional development on user loading features; the outcome was that FNS will charge a fixed price for the agreed work. This reduces risk to UoE and gives us a way to control costs for this work.
- Outstanding contractual issues (local Provet DB, ESCROW arrangements) not complete but in progress; it is these two deliverables that the Project Board need to be satisfied on in order to agree to closure of the implementation project. Local DB requires some additional DevTech effort to ensure that if a load is unsuccessful then the DB will restore to the most recent known good data copy; this is subject to DevTech availability but there is confidence this can be completed in June. PM and Snr Supplier have identified 2 separate routes for the ESCROW arrangements and are progressing this work to reach a solution that meets the needs of R(D)SVS and that also can be agreed with FNS.
- Project Sponsor has approved FNS to commence work on the UoE data feed / User detail changes / VTO student load application, at a fixed price. PM has agreement from VTO that FNS's proposed solution for loading and editing of student details will suit their needs. PM has provided estimates for the coordination of this work and the necessary testing and final deployment of the staff extract to production on the UoE side, on acceptance. Given FNS's schedule, this work is not guaranteed for delivery before the end of July; this is not contractual and so if the Project Board wish to close on completion of the contractual issues and move this work into a separate project - this will be covered at the next PB meeting; for the moment the previous outstanding milestones will be revised along with an approved increase to the project budget to cover the additional costs of extending the project.
Issues
- No major issues.
- PM availability is stretched due to resource conflict across projects. PM made clear to the PB that availability could not be guaranteed after March. Revised milestones take into account limited PM availability.
- PM now has agreement for FNS to proceed with the user feed and VTO developments, and agreement on revised milestones and project budget increase.
Next Steps
- Delivery of contractual items: locally replicated Prover DB and ESCROW arrangements.
- Delivery of non-contractual items: coordinate FNS user feed and VTO development
- Close implementation project.
