3. EPM Presentation – 31 March 2005 Paul Galea Program Director, CTO

4. Agenda Why is EPM beneficial to OCIO and CTO? Current systems used by CTO What is EPM? EPM Solution Architecture Project Work in Progress Report

5. CTO Current Systems CREST –In-house developed standalone system –Non-scalable –Resource intensive Project Management Methodology –PRINCE2 OCIO and CTO interaction process –Strategy Implementation Process (SIP)

7. Benefits to OCIO and CTO Align projects with business goals Improve project delivery across the enterprise Support optimal resource allocation Centralise and integrate best practices Track and justify value of project management

8. Short Term Benefits Systems standardisation opportunity Automated traffic light notification for projects Centralised project information source Validate feasibility of ‘proof of concept’ EPM initiative

9. Medium/Longer Term Benefits Innovative inter-departmental communications Supports WoVG standardisation strategies for systems and processes that “touch” departments Retire legacy systems Live Executive Reporting Functionality scalable to promote cultural change – underpins success of SIP
