Issues
The environments (dev, test and live) Archibus that are being used for the testing are out of date and do not reflect the current Live environment. This makes the testing more difficult for the developers.
The scope of the project has been extended as the BRD was written 1.5 years ago and the interpretation of the requirements has not been controlled.
This project is over budget, has increased its scope and also the timeline will need to be extended due to complex issues found during testing
Summary
The Project has moved in January to: phrase User Acceptance Testing, from RAG status Red to Amber and planning in progress for next phrases: Deployment to Closure. Concurrently the PMO will provide a Health check of the project in Jan 2020 to confirm capacity to complete delivery.
