Section One: Programme Commentary, RAG and Resources Update

A new project (CSG011) kicked off in January which will deliver the pilot of the Totara Learning Management System. 

The CSE Replacement Servers project (CSG010) is also reporting an Amber status this month as the current testing and deployment milestones are likely to be pushed back, pending the server configuration being finalised.

The monthly programme burn rate remains a little above 100%.
