Report for September 2024

Report Date
September 2024

Achievements this period

  • Project brief approved 4 Sep 24

Issues

While PM was on annual leave 3 tasks were to be completed

  • Meeting arranged for 13 Sep to agree server design and agent service names (Supplier, Production and Dev Services)
  • Supplier and Production to have agreed Vendor access method
  • Servers ordered and initial work begun

The meeting of 13 Sept did not happen as the Supplier could not make it. We therefore still have to agree the server design, agent names and vendor access. The supplier has been asked to supply dates as to when they can attend a meeting and we will work round those dates.

However, the completion date for the Test server is 30 September 24 and this will not be met. New dates are not yet available until we know when the supplier will engage. Because of this the project will be Amber with regards to time.

 

 

Next Steps

  • Rearrange meeting with vendor to get agreements on design, agents and vendor access
  • Test servers to be set up
  • OCS upgraded on Test

 

Commentary:  Project is AMBER.

Description: A meeting was arranged during PM leave for 13 Se 24 for vendor to discuss and agree server design and agent service names with Dev Services and Production. A vendor access method was also to be agreed with Production. The meeting did not happen as vendor could not make it.

Impact: Impacts the date for the Test server to be completed as we cannot move forward without vendor input

Plan: Vendor has been asked for dates as to when he can make a meeting. Timelines will be extended
