PROJECT OVERSIGHT PROCESS MEMORANDUM – DOIT, JULY 2007PROJECT OVERSIGHT PROCESS MEMORANDUM – DOIT, JULY 2007

Project management plan” is a formal document approved by the executive sponsor and the Department and developed in the plan phase used to manage project execution, control, and project close.

The primary uses of the project plan are to document planning assumptions and decisions, facilitate communication among stakeholders, and documents approved scope, cost and schedule baselines.

A project plan includes at least other plans for issue escalation, change control, communications, deliverable review and acceptance, staff acquisition, and risk management.

“Project manager” means a qualified person from the lead agency responsible for all aspects of the project over the entire project management lifecycle (initiate, plan, execute, control, close). The project manager must be familiar with project scope and objectives, as well as effectively coordinate the activities of the team. In addition, the project manager is responsible for developing the project plan and project schedule with the project team to ensure timely completion of the project. The project manager interfaces with all areas affected by the project including end users, distributors, and vendors. The project manager ensures adherence to the best practices and standards of the Department.

Project product” means the final project deliverables as defined in the project plan meeting all

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY - RATIONALE FOR THE PROJECTEXECUTIVE SUMMARY - RATIONALE FOR THE PROJECT

The State Personnel Office (SPO) is responsible for the administration of the classified service personnel system which consists of approximately 18,000 state employees from approximately 68 executive state agencies, boards, and commissions. A comprehensive system of human resource management is achieved through the integration of seven functional areas which are administered by the SPO Director with oversight by a five member State Personnel Board. The seven functional areas are:

1. Agency HR Services2. Shared HR Services3. Career Services4. Compensation and Classification5. Training and Development6. Labor Relations7. Adjudication

The goals for this project are to implement an Enterprise Content Management (ECM) system to digitize the personnel records across State of New Mexico executive branch agencies; to modernize the business processes within the State of New Mexico Office (SPO); and to provide oversight and uniformity in business practices with HR Bureaus doing business with SPO.

o ECM is a formalized process of organizing and storing organizations’ documents and other content.

4.1.1 P4.1.1 PROJECTROJECT M MANAGEMENTANAGEMENT D DELIVERABLESELIVERABLES

Project Deliverables are work products or artifacts that are driven by the project management methodology requirements and standard project management practices regardless of the product requirements of the project.

Project Charter The Project Charter for Certification sets the overall scope for the project, the governance structure, and when signed is considered permission to proceed with the project. The Project Charter for Certification is used to provide the Project Certification Committee with adequate knowledge of the project and its planning to certify the initiation phase of the project

Certification Form The Request for Certification and Release of Funds form is submitted when a project goes for any of the certification phases. It deals with the financial aspects of the project, as well as other topics that indicate the level of planning that has gone into the project. Many of the questions have been incorporated into the preparation of the project charter

Project Management Plan “Project management plan” is a formal document approved by the executive sponsor and the Department and developed in the plan phase used to manage project execution, control, and project close. The primary uses of the project plan are to document planning assumptions and decisions, facilitate communication among stakeholders, and documents approved scope, cost and schedule baselines. A project plan includes at least other plans for issue escalation, change control, communications, deliverable review and acceptance, staff acquisition, and risk management plan.

IV&V Contract & Reports “Independent verification and validation (IV&V)” means the process of evaluating a project to determine compliance with specified requirements and the process of determining whether the products of a given development phase fulfill the requirements established during the previous stage, both of which are performed by an organization independent of the lead agency. Independent verification and validation assessment reporting. The Department of Information Technology (DoIT) requires all projects subject to oversight to engage an independent verification and validation contractor unless waived by the Department.

IT Service Contracts The Department of Information Technology and the State Purchasing Division of General Services have established a template for all IT related contracts.

Operations Requirements

4.2.1 T4.2.1 TECHNICALECHNICAL S STRATEGYTRATEGY

Discuss the key technical strategies for achieving success in this project:

Developing a project strategy is a process of choosing an approach to the work that maximizes strengths, minimizes weaknesses, takes advantage of opportunities and mitigates threats while balancing the anticipated cost and potential benefit. A good strategy will minimize risk while maximizing return on investment.

The strategic direction is to select and implement a Commercial-Off-the-Shelf (COTS) software product that has demonstrated its effectiveness in the marketplace. Using a package strategy rather than a custom development strategy has been proven effective in many situations, and is a common strategy in both the private and public sectors.

A package strategy however, is not without its own risks. As a whole, the Information Technology (IT) industry has found the implementation of Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), Customer Relationship Management (CRM), Supply Chain Management (SCM) and other large-scale automation packages to be very difficult in many situations. Many of the high profile IT project disasters documented by the IT trade press over the years have involved the implementation of software packages. The question then is how to take advantage of a software package strategy while avoiding the potential pitfalls that have plagued so many other package implementations over the years?

The project strategy is based on the strategic direction established by the SPO Digitization Executive Steering Committee, and the lessons learned from others in the Information Technology industry that have implemented package software. Three principles guide the project strategy:

1) Project ManagementOne of the common factors identified, as a contributing cause of many information technology project failures is the lack of effective project management. The State of New Mexico Department of Information Technology is implementing project management programs both in their organization and in each state agency implementing IT projects. This project will adhere to project management standards of practice as being implemented within state government and specified by the Project Management Institute (PMI) in their Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK) guidelines. According to the Project Management Body of Knowledge:

PAGE | 22

Page 24: NM DoIT Di…  · Web viewProduce in MS Word or MS Excel a weekly project status report identifying overall project summary, current project status, milestones completed, and issues

“Project Management is the application of knowledge, skills, tools and techniques to project activities to meet project objectives. Project Management is accomplished using the processes such as initiating, planning, executing, controlling, and closing. The project team manages the work of the projects, and the work typically involves:

Competing demands for: scope, time, cost, risk and quality. Stakeholders with differing needs and expectations. Identified requirements.

“It is important to note that many of the processes within project management are iterative in nature. This is in part due to the existence of and the necessity for progressive elaboration in a project throughout the project lifecycle, i.e., the more you know about your project, the better you are able to manage it.”

2) Well-defined Objectives

The project must be tightly focused on a well-defined set of objectives. The “keep it simple” approach minimizes risk and implementation time. It empowers the team to concentrate on those objectives that offer the maximum return on the invested time and effort while allowing the team to spend adequate time and energy on validation, testing and documentation – tasks that are the first to be sacrificed in a more complex and drawn out implementation plan. The net result is a successful package implementation on which further development and enhancements are more likely and have a better chance of ultimate success.

3) Support ExtensibilityThe objective is to procure a solution designed to easily allow the addition of new features later. This allows SPO Divisions to start with a limited subset of functionality, and limiting initial costs, with the option to expand to greater functionality in the future.

The responsibility assignment matrix (RAM) is a table that relates the project organization structure to the work breakdown structure to ensure that each element of the project’s scope of work is assigned to a responsible organization or individual. Larger projects may define responsibility assignment matrices at multiple levels. A high-level RAM may define which group or organizational unit is responsible for each component of the work breakdown structure, while lower-level RAM’s are used within the groups to assign roles and responsibilities for specific activities to specific individuals. The codes are defined as follows: A = Approval, O = Oversight, R = Responsible, S = Provide Support, W = Does the Work.

6.1.2 P6.1.2 PROJECTROJECT R RISKISK I IDENTIFICATIONDENTIFICATION

Risk Identification is performed at the beginning and continuously through out every phase of the SPO Digitization and Modernization Project. Risk Identification is on-going activity. Potential risks can be identified by the project teams, Executive Staff, stakeholders, vendor, IV&V, ESC, and SME input up front and at any time through the lifecycle of the project an documenting the specific characteristics of each risk. The documentation and tracking of identified risks is captured on a risk evaluation tool, built with an excel spreadsheet. This is the primary tool to be used to list and categorize SPO Digitization project risks.

6.1.3 P6.1.3 PROJECTROJECT R RISKISK A ANALYSISNALYSIS

The risk analysis process is to determine a score based upon the risk probability of occurring and the impact of the risk if it occurs.. The scoring process may employ both qualitative and quantitative techniques as deemed necessary to objectively evaluate potential risks to the project. Risks are assigned individually a probability score and an impact score of 5=high, 3= medium, and 1= low.

The risks that fall into the high probability of occurrence and a high to medium impact should be considered significant risks and will have contingency plans to mitigate the risks.

6.1.4 P6.1.4 PROJECTROJECT R RISKISK P PLANNINGLANNING

Risk Planning or Response Strategies is determining ahead of time what actions are going to be taken should an identified risk occur. This should be kept concise and not attempt to solve a problem that hasn’t occurred yet. A responsible party will be identified to take the corrective action along with a due date for this action. Each recommended corrective action should be specific to the identified risk which has occurred and should be actionable.

Risk Monitoring and Control – The process of tracking, evaluating and responding to ongoing developments relative to project plans, risk mitigation plans and specific contingency plans. Risk management is an integral component of integrated project control. This is an ongoing process for the duration of the project and will be part of every project status meeting.

Risk identification is the responsibility of all members of the project team. The Project Director and Project Managers are responsible for tracking risks and for developing mitigation strategies and contingency plans that address the risks identified by the team.

The SPO Digitization project will follow a continuous risk management strategy. Risk will be assessed routinely to ensure that identified risks are being dealt with appropriately and that new risks are identified and dealt with as early as possible

6.1.6 I6.1.6 ISSUESSUE ANDAND A ACTIONCTION I ITEMTEM M MANAGEMENTANAGEMENT

When the project team identifies an issue it is identified as an Action Item and will be added to the Action Items table in the Project Status Report. An issue can also be identified by anyone affiliated with the project although the project team will be primarily responsible for tracking issues/action items through to resolution. The ESC and project team will review the action item status during regularly scheduled meetings. The action item status will be reviewed at any time by the Project Manager. The process of tracking an action item is outlined here:

1) An issue is identified.2) It is added to the action item table, assigned an action item number, description, assigned to; date

assigned, date due/completed, and status.

Listed below are examples of how an issue can be resolved:

An issue can become a task added to the project plan with proper approval, if new, or within scope of the project.

It could be resolved by an action taken. A document can be created which addresses the issue. A resolution could create new issues that need to be addressed. A new policy or business rule could be created which addresses the issue.

The project team is primarily responsible to resolve issues or follow-up to be sure action is being taken to resolve an issue.

6.3 SCOPE MANAGEMENT PLAN6.3 SCOPE MANAGEMENT PLAN

Describe the process that is going to be used to manage the scope of the project. Make sure to address managing stakeholder expectations.

Project control is the mechanism by which the Project Director in conjunction with the project team assesses progress relative to the project plan. The project control process is implemented through a bi-weekly project status meeting. The meeting will be designed to identify variances from the project plan and to identify and initiate corrective actions where appropriate.

Cost Control –The project director maintains a copy of the current budget and is to notify the SPO ESC of budget variances as they are identified.

Schedule Control – The project team is responsible for establishing and maintaining a project schedule. The project team will assess the current project schedule status and report variances as they are identified. Additionally, the team will identify and implement the appropriate corrective actions to eliminate or minimize schedule variances.

Quality Management – SPO Digitization project quality management will be established for each deliverable based on the quality mechanisms of the responsible organization, and the SPO Quality Management Plan.

Risk Management – Risk management is an ongoing process of identification and assessment. Risk Assessment is included as part of the routine status process of the project. This maintains an awareness of risk and the associated risk assessment and monitoring tasks required to manage the project effectively.

These four parameters of the project are integrally linked and any significant change in one will likely cause changes in the others. Project control establishes the mechanism to routinely track and report on these parameters. If issues arise that result in significant variances in these parameters, the project team will prepare and submit a Project Change Request form through the Project Change Control process.

The process below is designed to capture project status information on a weekly basis. The information is then used to trigger corrective action, risk mitigation and a variety of reporting processes. This process is critical to successful project communication and is the foundation on which a successful project control system will be built. The process should allow for flexibility in dealing with project control issues while ensuring that project status information is captured and documented.

6.3.1.1 C6.3.1.1 CHANGEHANGE C CONTROLONTROL P PROCESSROCESS

Change Control establishes how change will be managed, including capturing, tracking, communicating, and resolving change. Due to much ambiguity regarding change, it is vital that we document and discuss the change process with the executive sponsor.

A formal change control process is an essential component of a successful IT project. The key to controlling project change, is managing the impact to the project plan, budget, and implementation schedule.

Some changes are unavoidable – instances where changes have to be made to comply with legal, federal/state regulations, policy changes, compliance with changes in the business direction of the

enterprise, or where technology may dictate change. Other non-essential changes can be avoided through management of a formal change control process.

Scope changes (sometimes referred to as scope creep) are the continual addition of functional enhancements to the product requirements throughout the project life cycle. Excessive scope changes are directly related to poorly defined product requirements and specifications. A well thought out change control process will assist the project management team in controlling “scope creep”.

Three (3) steps are necessary to control scope changes:1. Establish the baseline product.2. Obtain agreement from the project “approvers”.3. Enforce a formal change control process.

Establish the baseline productThe SPO project plan is developed around a “package” strategy. Further, the strategy specifically specifies minimal modifications to the package. Functional modifications are to be limited in the SBS product.

Agreement from the SPO ESCThe baseline product described above and strategy for implementation is to be reviewed and approved by the SPO Executive Steering Committee. Requests to change the scope will also be reviewed and approved by the SPO ESC.

Enforce a formal change control processThe software package/implementation process is never static. Some changes are to be expected during the SBS implementation, and a formal process has been defined and is to be followed to make sure all changes to the product are made in an orderly manner. As scope change requests are made, a change control process ensures

Only necessary changes are made, Changes are communicated to all affected parties, and Changes are implemented in an orderly fashion.

Costs estimates are the costs applied to an activity in a project by assigning resources with associated rates or fees. Resources can include equipment, material, technology, processing cycles, or people. The total cost is critical and should be consistent with the proposal; include breakdowns as needed. Match these cost estimates with the actual billed amounts. Use an appropriate format for the project size and customer requirements (e.g., by WBS, milestone, or deliverable).

6.4.1 B6.4.1 BUDGETUDGET T TRACKINGRACKING

Budget is reported on weekly budget summary statement on the status report and reviewed in scheduled ESC meeting

6.5 COMMUNICATION PLAN6.5 COMMUNICATION PLAN

Communication planning involves determining the information and communication needs of the stakeholders, executive sponsors, project team and others as needed. The communication plan needs to address who needs what information, when they will need it, how it will be given to them, and by whom. The complexity of the project may require a separate communication plan; however a high level summary of that plan will need to be included here and a reference made to the appropriate Appendix.

Communication is fundamental to effective project management. The Communications Plan outlines the roles and responsibilities of participants in the dissemination, review and approval of project information. A communications plan that is well implemented will help manage expectations of the project, assure appropriate levels of communication with internal and external project stakeholders, provide relevant, accurate, consistent information at all times and help generate and sustain enthusiasm and support for the project.

The communication strategy covers all the informational needs of the project stakeholder community. Many will receive routine information about the project. Others will be able to visit the project website and obtain the specific information that they are seeking and all may receive ad hoc communication from the project team at any time depending on the need.

6.5.2 S6.5.2 STATUSTATUS M MEETINGSEETINGS

The Executive Steering Committee will meet at a minimum on a monthly basis in order to review project progress, deliverables/milestones, provide direction to the Project Director, and team. The Project Director is required to provide formal status reports to the ESC and will present the report during the ESC meetings. The Project Director is also required to report on the overall status of the project on a monthly basis, per standard DoIT procedures.

Specific requests for expenditure authorization should be forwarded to the ESC representatives for the agencies. If funding approval is an agenda item on the regular ESC meeting, the request and associated justification for spending should be circulated to committee members at least seven (7) days in advance of the ESC meeting. If funding approval is required in a timeframe that does not coincide with the ESC meeting schedule, it is the responsibility of the Project Director to send a request and justification directly to the ESC committee members. A reminder notice should be sent out after seven (7) days if there has been no response from ESC committee members. A final attempt to contact ESC members should be made at fourteen (14) days if there has been no response. Summary of any such action should be documented in team status reports and reported to the ESC at the next meeting.

6.6 PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENT (PROJECT METRICS)6.6 PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENT (PROJECT METRICS)

The Project Manager and Executive Sponsor define the project metrics that will be used to control the project. Each project will need to have an established metrics program. Metrics are collected for measuring the progress of a project against its planned budget, schedule, resource usage, and error rates, and of establishing a historical database, which will aid in planning and forecasting future projects. At a minimum metrics must be established for time (schedule), cost (budget) and quality.

Configuration Management determines how project information (files, reports, designs, memos, documents, etc.) will be managed (tracked, approved, stored, secured, accessed, version control, etc.) and owned by (e.g., Agency managing the project or the Customer). Standards and team awareness are critical.

6.8.1 V6.8.1 VERSIONERSION C CONTROLONTROL

SPO will implement a software solution to manage version controls for documentation and products. The software will secure documents and products for access by a single individual. The software will track usage, stalled workflow, and version. The proposed software will have the ability to also merge changes to a central repository.

“Provide to the Department all project management and product deliverables. Deliverables shall include but not limited to the project plan, project schedule, initial and periodic risk assessments, quality strategies and plan, periodic project reports, requirements and design documents for entire project. The lead agency must make available all deliverables in a share drive repository with open access for the Department.

6.9 PROCUREMENT MANAGEMENT PLAN6.9 PROCUREMENT MANAGEMENT PLAN

Projects often have some element of procurement, i.e. the requirement to purchase goods and/or services from outside the organization. The procedures to be used to handle these procurements should be included here. Activities such as a make-or-buy analysis; writing requirements; solicitation planning, evaluation and selection; inspection and acceptance; contract closeout should all be included.

The procurement process included: Complete requirements definition, business requirements, and procurement justification Complete Scope of Work Survey industry for best fit candidates to meet requirements From three top candidates, acquire three cost estimates. Complete analysis, present to ESC Receive ESC recommendation Follow SPD requirements for procurement

7. 0 PROJECT CLOSE7. 0 PROJECT CLOSE

Project Close will always consist of administrative project activities and possibly contractual project activities and an external vendor is employed. Completing both sets of activities is a mandatory step in the project life cycle. Administrative activities complete the internal needs for the Agency/Unit that is responsible for managing the project, such as lessons learned, recording the last hours against the project, and providing transition for the staff to other assignments. Contractual activities meet the contractual needs, such as executing a procurement audit and formal acceptance of the project work products.

7.1 ADMINISTRATIVE CLOSE7.1 ADMINISTRATIVE CLOSE

Administrative Close occurs at both the end of phase and end of project. This closure consists of verification that objectives and deliverables were met. Acceptance is formalized and phase activities are administratively closed out. Administrative closure occurs on a “by-phase” basis in accordance with the WBS and should not be delayed to project end. At that point, the burden of closing is too great and audits inaccurate. The specific project close activities for a given project are contingent on the project’s complexity and size. Project managers should work with the project’s project management consultant to tailored Project Close procedures to compliment the project’s objectives

7.2 CONTRACT CLOSE7.2 CONTRACT CLOSE

Contract close is similar to administrative close in that it involves product and process verification for contract close.

“Enterprise Content Management (ECM)” is generally considered to be an amalgamation of a number

of distinct but interrelated applications: Integrated Document Management (IDM) Web Content Management (WCM) Digital Asset Management (DAM) Enterprise Records & Retention Management (ERRM) Collaboration Content Management (CCM), Collaboration technology, a subset of SPO,

is becoming increasingly important in organizations, allowing the participants in a business process to come together to optimize the process to mutual benefit. This brings partners, suppliers, customers and agencies together in a controlled way, manages, and leverages collaboration content such as discussion threads, voting results, and documents.

“Enterprise Records & Retention Management (ERRM)” is a process that monitors documents (for example, papers, books, maps, e-mail, Web site content, photographs and messages) throughout their life cycle; from the time they are created to the time they are destroyed. Records are documents used to maintain information created or received while conducting an organization's activities. They are held for several reasons, including business continuity, legal or statutory requirements, or as permanent records of the enterprise. In many cases, ERRM is a mandatory program, and enterprises have no choice but to spend money to meet legal or regulatory requirements. Penalties for lack of compliance can range from censure to fines or, in extreme cases, to suspension of business activities. (From Gartner Research)

(Note: see also the definition for “Public Record,” and note the distinction for record destruction vs. record disposition.)

“Forms capture and processing” Forms-capture and forms-processing software apply recognition technologies such as OCR, ICR and bar code against an electronic document (such as scanned paper and electronic fax) to increase the data entry throughput with a lower labor component. In the simplest case, a document is scanned, and key fields (for example, name, account number, age, purchase amount, tax owed) are recognized and translated, verified and passed to a database or line-of-business application. The leading forms processing and capture vendors are providing multichannel, multiprotocol (paper, Web, fax, e-mail) capture and export capabilities.

“General schedule” means a records retention and disposition schedule that specifies the disposition of support records common to many offices or agencies within government.  See also:  records retention and disposition schedule.

“Human readable form” means information that can be recognized and interpreted without the use of technology.

“Information system” means an electronic framework by which hardware and software resources are coordinated to manipulate and convert inputs into outputs in order to achieve the objective of an enterprise.

“Life cycle” means the life span of a record from its creation or receipt to its final disposition.

“Medium, media” means the physical material on which information can be recorded.

“Microforms” means microfilm media, including reels, fiche, jackets, and computer output microfilm (COM) containing micro images.

“NARA” – National Archives and Records Administration

“Network Attached Storage (NAS)” is a LAN-attached storage server with a small, optimized system software package dedicated to performing storage related tasks. It includes preconfigured disk capacity that can be quickly installed on popular network platforms. NAS provides this expanded capacity without sacrificing either file access speed or system throughput, which would be affected by network storage add-ons such as tape libraries, CD towers, or optical jukeboxes. Instead, NAS storage devices are usually magnetic disks or RAID arrays that provide seamless, high performance file access and filing by operating at full hard disk speed. And the cost in time, resources, and inconvenience is far less than that of increasing internal storage space within the server or implementing a SAN. (See Storage Area Network (SAN).)

“Non-record” means extra copies of documents kept solely for convenience of reference, stocks of publications, records not usually included within the scope of the official records of an agency or government entity, and library material intended only for reference or exhibition. The following specific types of materials are non-records: materials neither made nor received in pursuance of statutory requirements nor in connection with the functional responsibility of the officer or agency; extra copies of correspondence; preliminary drafts or other material summarized in final or other form and which have no value once action has been taken; blank

“Operating system,” means the master control software that runs a computer.  When the computer is turned on, the operating system is the first program that gets loaded into the memory of the machine.

“Paper scanning, optical character recognition/intelligent character recognition (OCR/ICR) and imaging” One of the oldest Enterprise Content Management technologies, document imaging is more than 20 years old. It has evolved from proprietary stand-alone systems to standards-based applications. Imaging is used heavily in the financial service industries, banking and insurance. Government agencies are also heavy users of scanning technology. Because of its longevity, imaging technology has become highly commoditized and, therefore, presents a difficult market for stand-alone imaging vendors to succeed in. Imaging is now most often paired with integrated document management (IDM) solutions. Imaging applications are distinguished by their volume requirements. Although most imaging applications are more modest, high-volume scanning and imaging systems process more than 100,000 images per day.

“Pending litigation” means a proceeding in a court of law whose activity is in progress but not yet completed.

“Program” means a coded set of instructions, written by humans, that directs a computer’s functions.  The program can be stored on disk (in which case the program is software) or in a chip (which is firmware).

“Public record” means all books, papers, maps, photographs or other documentary materials, regardless of physical form or characteristics, made or received by any agency in pursuance of law or in connection with the transaction of public business and preserved, or appropriate for preservation, by the agency or its legitimate successor as evidence of the organization, functions, policies, decisions, procedures, operations or other activities of the government, or because of the informational and historical value of data contained therein.

“Records custodian” means the statutory head of the agency or his or her designee.

“Records Liaison Officer (RLO)” means the individual in the custodial agency designated by the records custodian to cooperate with, assist, and advise the General Services Department in creating efficient and effective records management programs. The RLO in an agency is responsible for implementing the records retention and disposition schedules within his or her agency.  The records liaison is also responsible for authorizing the storage and or destruction of his or her agency’s records.

“Records management” means the systematic control of all records from creation or receipt through processing, distribution, maintenance and retrieval, to their ultimate disposition.

“Records retention period” means the period of time during which records must be maintained by an organization because they are needed for operational, legal, fiscal, historical or other purposes.

“Records retention and disposition schedules,” means document that specifies actions for the retention and disposition of current, inactive, and non-current records series of an organization or agency.

“Records series” means file units, documents, or electronic records arranged according to a filing system or maintained as a unit because they relate to a particular subject or function, result from the same activity, have a particular form, or share some other relationship arising from their creation, receipt, or use.

“Storage” The State Commission of Public Records (SRCA) provides secure storage for in-active public records maintained by state agencies. The SRCA maintains two records center facilities; the Albuquerque facility has a storage capacity of 45,000 cubic feet and the records center in Santa Fe has a storage capacity of 75,000 cubic feet. The Record Center Services Bureau staff monitors and handles the transfer, receipt, storage, and withdrawal of in-active records housed in the record facilities for state agencies. When those records have met their legal retention, the staff executes the disposition of the records. The disposition would be one of two situations, 1) transfer to Archives or 2) destruction.

“Storage Area Network (SAN)” is a technology designed to overcome throughput and data-sharing issues that are common in existing data networks. SANs are fully scalable, fault-resilient shared data repositories providing unlimited mixing and matching of storage devices, storage space, and even files (under certain conditions) across the network. They are fast becoming the architecture of choice for centrally managed network storage tasks. SANs are high-speed, high-bandwidth I/O channels (usually Fiber Channel) that connect to the back end of local area network (LAN) servers. They remove cumbersome storage functions from the server, thus improving overall LAN and WAN performance. A typical SAN includes a blend of storage devices (such as automated tape libraries or RAID) capable of communicating with multiple hosts and with each other over a fast, fault-tolerant storage pipeline (the SAN). The SAN is actually a dedicated storage access I/O channel (containing network properties) optimized for handling storage tasks.

“Scheduling” means the action of establishing retention periods for records and providing for their proper disposition at the end of active use.

“Transfer” means moving inactive records to a records center or archives.  Moving records into the state archives also includes the transfer of custody from the custodial agency to the state archives.

“TIFF" means tagged image file format, a standardized format for storage of digitalized images, which contains a header or tag that defines the exact data structure of the associated image.

“Vital records” means records essential to the continuing operation of an agency. They are either intrinsically irreplaceable or irreplaceable because copies do not have the same value as the originals.  They are essential to the continuity of services during a disaster or to the restoration of daily business when it has been interrupted.  They are the records that would be required to protect the legal and financial interests of an agency, preserve the rights of the people, and resume operations after a major disaster like fire or flood.

“Voice mail” means a telecommunication message that is digitized and can be stored and subsequently retrieved in audio or visual format.

“Website” means a presence on the internet or intranet containing information that represents an agency or presents information on specific subjects or allows transactions to be conducted through the use of links or web pages. A website is normally hosted and maintained by an agency or by another entity sharing internet resource or through an internet service provider.

“Work process management” - aka workflow, work management, process automation or e-process management software — is a tool for automating business processes and handling the interrelationships between the components of a business process, participants, procedures, information, tasks and management. Document-centric workflow was pioneered in the 1980s as a means of routing images of documents through a processing or approval cycle in an organization. The goal is to create an ideal document route through an enterprise, not simply to automate an established paper-based process.

APPENDIX D - PROJECT MANAGEMENT DEFINITIONSAPPENDIX D - PROJECT MANAGEMENT DEFINITIONS

Below is a list of project management terms. These definitions were supplied by the NM Department of Information Technology office.

Acceptance CriteriaThe criteria that a system or component must satisfy in order to be accepted by a user, customer, or other authorized entity. [IEEE-STD-610]

Acceptance TestingFormal testing conducted to determine whether or not a system satisfies its acceptance criteria and to enable the customer to determine whether or not to accept the system. [IEE-STD-610]

AssumptionsPlanning factors that for planning purposes, will be considered true, real, or certain. Assumptions generally involve a degree of risk. They may be documented here, or converted to formal risks.

BaselineA specification or product that has been formally reviewed and agreed upon that thereafter serves as the basis for further development, and that can be changed only through formal change control procedures. [IEEE-STD-610]

CommitmentA commitment is a pact that is freely assumed, visible, and expected to be kept by all parties.

[IEEE-STD-610]

Configuration Management Library SystemThese are the tools and procedures needed to access the contents of the software baseline library.

ConstraintsFactors that will (or do) limit the project management team’s options. Contract provisions will generally be considered constraints.

Contingency PlanningContingency Planning is the development of a management plan that identifies alternative strategies to be used to ensure project success, if specified risk events occur.

CrashingCrashing is taking action to decrease the total duration after analyzing a number of alternatives to determine how to get the maximum duration compression for the least cost.

Critical PathCritical Path is a series of activities that determines the duration of the project. The critical path usually defined as those activities with float less than or equal to specified value often zero. It is the longest path through the project.

Dependencies, DiscretionaryDependencies defined by the project management team. They should be used with care and usually revolve around current Best Practices in a particular application area. They are sometimes referred to as soft logic, preferred logic, or preferential logic. This may also encompass particular approaches because a specific sequence of activities is preferred, but not mandatory in the project life cycle.

Dependencies, MandatoryDependencies inherent to the work being done. In some cases, they are referred to as hard logic.

Dependency ItemA product, action, piece of information, etc., that must be provided by one individual or group to a second individual or group so they can perform a planned task.

DeliverableAny measurable, tangible, verifiable outcome, result, or item that must be produced to complete a project or part of a project that is subject to approval by the project sponsor or customer.

DurationThe number of work periods (not including holidays or other nonworking periods) required to complete an activity or other project element.

Duration CompressionShortening the project schedule without reducing the project scope. Often increases the project cost.

End UserThe individual or group who will use the system for its intended operational use when it is deployed in its environment.

EffortThe number of labor units required to complete an activity or other project element, usually expressed as staff hours, staff days, or staff weeks.

Fast TrackingCompressing the project schedule by overlapping activities that would normally be done in sequence, such as design and construction.

FloatThe amount of time that an activity may be delayed from its early start without delaying the project finished date.

Formal ReviewA formal meeting at which a product is presented to the end user, customer, or other interested parties for comment and approval. It can also be a review of the management and technical activities and of the progress of the project.
