  2. Objective • Current Project Status • Financial View • Next Steps

  3. Current Project Status • Signed Statement of Work with Capgemini - 02-Sep-2005 • Initiated Implementation Phase - 06-Sep-2005 • 39 week project – Target July 2006 • On schedule/On budget – Design underway to confirm scope • Define scope and deployment approach ~02-Nov-2005 • Need support to balance IEEE Major Actions/projects to ensure focus on BMS tasks and deliverables • Arthur Winston attended MC meeting on 8 September where Sally Waselik provided a comprehensive status report on the project to upgrade IEEE's primary business systems (BMS) • Key points he will highlighting in a communique shortly: • As you are aware, this is a high impact project and is critically important to the future of the IEEE; Over 50 staff will be involved in this effort, and there is considerable work that has to be done by these staff members to ensure the completion of the BMS project on time • He wants to encourage you a) to be sensitive to the possibility that there could be some delays in completion of Major Actions currently ongoing as staff involved in BMS balance their priorities, and b) to temporarily refrain from requesting staff involved in the BMS work to take on any significant new project.

  4. Current Project Status • On 19-Sep-2005 Oracle announced their purchase of Siebel • IEEE has had a long standing relationship with Oracle for our database system and backend financial infrastructure • Siebel is the leader in customer relationship management (CRM) best practices and software solutions • We have been working with them for over 7 months to outline plans for our new Business Management System that is scheduled to launch in mid 2006.

  5. Current Project Status • With Oracle providing our backend infrastructure and Siebel the front-end customer interface working together as one company, we expect the interoperability of our entire system will be preserved and strengthened • I have received a letter from Siebel CEO George T. Sheehan assuring IEEE that Oracle and Siebel are committed to supporting and protecting our investment in Seibel applications • We will work closely with them to understand their roadmap - I am confident they will continue to provide us with the best overall technology solutions.

  6. Financial View • Currently tracking on Budget • Calibration point is built into our Statement of Work (SOW) towards end of Design Phase (~02-Nov-2005) to potentially reduce the Implementation Hours Estimate, confirm scope and deployment approach • Some challenges – Training – appears we can mitigate
