Lessons Learned • Challenges • Virtual team: needed face-to-face interactions at critical junctures • Internal project that required significant project management discipline • Recreating Access database functionality vs. defining “real” requirements • User representatives needed direct line of communication with EPK Group regarding requirements • Delayed testing of EPK and lack of understanding of core functionality led to theorizing about the tool
Lessons Learned • Challenges • Integration with corporate HR systems, e.g., PeopleSoft • Major configuration error (most codes on Project Server vs. EPK) corrected late in the development cycle • Lack of resource Requirements visibility in Capacity Center requires reliance on reports vs. standard EPK functionality User’s Meeting January 23-25, 2007 11
Results • Other FIS divisions have adopted (or plan to adopt) EPK after reviewing the solution • Increased productivity • Collocated, refreshed project status and resource information readily available • Portfolio visibility for executives and senior management
