Report for September 2016

Report Date
September 2016

Achievements in last period

  • A date has been agreed for the Live deployment of the Bank Validation migration for eFinancials (Jira FIN108-2), and the supplier fix to suppress exception messages (Jira FIN108-60)

 

Issues

  • The supplier of FPM has not yet been able to provide a solution for the two remaining issues, and no revised delivery date has been offered. 
    • As a result, the project remains unable to confirm its remaining milestones. 
    • Revised milestones will be confirmed after the expected solution has been received from the supplier.  Meanwhile, the project's Time status remain RED.
  • As a result of the ongoing delays, the project's planned budget has been exceeded, but remains within the permissible tolerance.

Next Steps

  • Deploy eFinancials Bank Validation migration to Live (06-Oct)
  • Suppliers to resolve Bank Validation and Scheduled Task issues in FPM
  • Apply supplier's fix to Dev; obtain business sign-off to progress to Test
  • Re-plan the project's remaining milestones
