2012-08-08 Program Committee Meeting
We have restarted the ITSM Program Governance Meetings for FY13, as we will begin to launch new projects as part of our overall program. As a reminder to everyone, Program Governance guides the ITSM roadmap, dispositions issues and risks that are escalated from ITSM project teams, prepares ITSM proposals which are reviewed and approved by the ITSM Advisory Board.
Attending: Adriene Radcliffe, Lou Tiseo, Chloe Kennedy Turnbull (Notes); Absent: Paul DiBello, Ricardo Chavira, David Galassi
Agenda:
Current Status of ITSM Projects which just closed as part of FY12:
- ITS50A Project is closed $1.26M budget. We came at $ 1.35M but that included some contact dollars that belong to ITS50C. When accounted to the correct project, the project performed a negative variance $29K (over budget).
- ITS50C Project had a budget of $218K. This project had a negative variance of $38K (over budget)
- ITS50T Project (Training) was under budget just slightly with a positive variance
- Adriene will prepare an overall program spreadsheet for FY12 to share with the team as a summary
Projects we are preparing to execute in FY13
- CMDB project - Charter is signed and preparing for TOC approval.
- Bomgar Integration - currently being scheduled Bomgar will lead with Lori Seluga (Bomgar admin) and Bill W (tech lead). They originally provided an estimate to me of 3 days of work spread over one week. Probably light training/communication plan. Perhaps add in the functionality to let the IT Partners use it too since we never hit our license limit according to Lori
- START Replacement - Need to find somebody to help with the financial approval as a functional representative. No work has started on this project.
- Release Management (no real budget assigned for this, more functional process work with Andrea and the ITSM team working together)

Infrastructure SN process work - Chloe to work with Lou and Cheryl to map their processes in SN for Incident, Problem, Change. Chloe to send meeting request to Lou and Cheryl for first meeting. Document processes, figure out places for improvements and template creation.
Proposal for New Request
- David and Adriene spoke about moving this into production. Need an update on where we are with Fruition and the “approval” defect.
- Lou is working with the CAB to define a list of standard changes. We will need a request type to request a standard change. The team will then create a standard change template for them based on this.
