1. Projects plan – April 2016 stakeholder meeting

2. Where we are and where we are going…

3. What we’ve done to address your feedback “The number of projects on the list is overwhelming” Foundational and discretionary are on separate lists IT projects are listed below non-IT projects Focus on supporting decision making rather than a one dimensional scoring value Graph of effort / impact / number of stakeholders affected (bubble size) Example:

4. What we’ve done to address your feedback cont. “What about my project that was either in progress or was promised?” Resourced “in-flight” and previously committed to projects

5. Scoring model feedback

6. Project plan: Some definitions Foundational activities Foundational projects Maintaining and supporting existing systems / hardware Small scope enhancements Discretionary projects Backlog

7. Scoring / Resourcing FAQs What happens after projects are scored? How are they prioritized? For example, will a high impact, low effort project have priority over a high impact, high effort project? What happens if multiple projects end up having the same score? How do they get prioritized? How does the ET / IT (Education technology / Information technology) plan fit into this process?

8. Questions so far?

9. Table discussion: Which projects are not resourced (i.e., in the backlog) that should be? Are there innovative ways we might resource these projects? Which discretionary projects are resourced that should not be?

10. Next steps

11. Questions / comments / suggestions?

12. Appendix: Glossary Foundational project – is a project that will not be scored and that must be characterized as any of the following: Mandated Legal requirements Changes in law in reporting Contractual obligation Business mandated projects e.g., Study Group changes Addressing a critical risk Addressing safety issue “Keep the lights on” Keeping systems up to date e.g., Moodle Keeping hardware up to date Unexpected system end of life Discretionary project – is a non-foundational project; project will be scored Foundational activities – are activities IT Services must do before any discretionary projects can be resourced: Foundational projects Maintaining and supporting existing systems / hardware Small scope enhancements

15. How was the draft plan resourcing done? Factors Score Skills/Resources in IT-Services available to do the work Qualitative assessment based on business knowledge Resourced “in-flight” and previously committed to projects

16. Break time!

17. Submitted projects by business unit…

18. Table discussion 1 Review the project list - are there projects you would like clarity on? (Let’s try to focus on understanding rather than what’s resourced… resourcing is after the break)

19. New project management methodology

20. Table discussion 2 What additional factors beyond risk, strategic contribution and effort would you add? And what weighting?

21. Recap from our March meeting… Table discussion topics we discussed “Review the project list - are there projects you would like clarity on?” “What additional factors beyond risk, strategic contribution and effort would you add? And what weighting?”

22. What we’ve done to address your feedback Visualization Focus on supporting decision making rather than a one dimensional scoring value Graph of effort / impact / number of stakeholders affected (bubble size) Example:

23. A bit about scoring… Scoring model is the same; however, results are displayed graphically … less emphasis on the calculated score Scoring is just a tool to assist us in our assessment of what projects to resource. Scores are out of 3, with 3 being the highest for discretionary projects Foundational projects marked as 4
