Risks / Issues

Concerns

Past Meetings

...

• Telecom & IT Requests (Pagers, Telephone services, Mobile devices, Ethernet connection, Central campus backup) 
• Email & NetID PINs (YaleConnect, Email alias, NetID PINs)
  • Impact for Client Accts - Sept. release would require manual work (Avg. 450 requests/month) - Unacceptable.
  • Automation will become available with IAM solution (Release 1 ~FY14 Q3).
• Access Requests & Training (Analysis & Design) Oracle – move training to TMS, decommission XTRAIN, SciQuest, Xpress Shipping. Some manual work today will be included in new request process. Process Owners to review training requirements
• People Lists (Analysis & Design phase) - Originally part of IAM project portfolio, solution not ready. Building with Oracle until IAM solution is ready.
• START Replacement Training - Just-in-time, to coincide with release(s). To take place 4 weeks prior for big bang release

Discussion

• Modify deployment approach: phased releases vs. big bang release?
