From Funnel to Release Project Launch PROPOSAL FOR WORKING GROUPCONSIDERATION
Concept • Working Group: Cross-functional consortium who are best able to establish County-wide priorities for eGIS program • So, how will the priorities be established? And how will quarterly Release Projects be defined? • This presentation proposes a process for Working Group consideration
Sequence Establishing the Priorities Establishing a Release Project High-level requirements are gathered on the priority requests BTS estimates work effort to implement the requests BTS estimates available work hours Working Group rationalizes the priorities, effort, and availability – to establish next quarterly Release Project BTS PMO Advisory Team Gate 1 review & approval eGIS Steering Committee review & approval • Requests for eGIS applications are submitted • Submitted requests are scored on dimensions of benefit • Scored requests are added to the Requirements Repository • Scores used to float the requests with the most benefit • Top scoring requests are reviewed by Working Group and priority order is established
eGIS Working Group Activitiesto Define 2013 Q1 Release Content
Scoring Elements & Weighting • Minimum Score = 5 • Maximum Score = 80+35+25+20+10+5 = 175 • Non-linear scoring technique creates spread
Requirements Repository http://pinellas.sharepointsite.net/egis/workinggroup/Lists/eGIS%20Requirements%20Repository/
Scoring & Priority Views • SharePoint Views: • Score View: Uses the Score tabulation to order the requests from highest score to lowest score • Priority View: Uses the Priority consensus of the Working Group to order the requests from highest priority to lowest priority • The Working Group may establish priorities that override numeric scoring. The scoring process only serves to narrow down the list of requests needing Working Group attention.
Working Group Meetings Proposal: • Quarterly face-to-face meetings with (half-day) • Review / adjust go-forward priorities • Recognize new capabilities that have gone live • What’s new from Esri • Timing: Just prior to eGIS Steering Committee • Release-focused meetings as needed • Drill-down on requirements for release content • Partnering to develop hand-off capabilities in release’s stakeholder groups
Approval of Working Group Release Plan • Approval requires: • Working Group’s Release content recommendation must be rationalized with effort and available resource hours • BTS PMO ATP Checklist for Gate 1 must be completed, reviewed, and approved by PMO Advisory Team • eGIS Steering Committee must review and approve
Quarterly Release Cycle • Date-driven process • Frequent production releases • Continuous GIS platform improvement • Requires eGIS Working Group engagement
