Section 1: Programme Summary

Programme Manager's Commentary

 

ISG015 remains Amber this month due to conflicts on PM time.  We will look to assign a new PM in order to progress the project to closure.

The next Start of Term project has now started and will confirm the key staff who will be involved with the project this year. 

Given that ISG015 remains Amber, the programme RAG is also Amber.

Report by Emma McNab for April 2021

Achievements in Last Period

  • Ongoing pilot of service

Issues 

  • Covid - 19 issues have effected previous launch date and milestones, the launch was a soft launch with lower numbers of applicants given the restrictions of home working.  This has resulted in a longer pilot period than had been expected.
  • The Project Manager has not been able to support the project to closure as quickly as planned due to the longer pilot and prioritisation of other projects.  

Next Steps 

Priorities include:

  • Final review of milestones (aligned to impact of Covid-19)
    • Project Closure
