From: eyanow@MIT.EDU (Esther Yanow)
Project Name: Office of Corporate Relations (OCR)
Project Leader: Esther Yanow
Report Date: January 13, 1999
Accomplishments past period: This team has experienced a sad and difficult
time because of Steve Neiterman's passing. He was their wonderful project
leader. He helped them develop their high-level requirements, perform
their data gathering, and started creating the functional requirements from
the data gathering.
In December, Greg and I met with the group and discussed our next steps.
The team members are mature and motivated, and are now ready to move on.
Goals for the coming period: Here are the goals we identified at our
meeting. The time span will cover more than just the coming period.
1. Finish listing the functional requirements.
2. Invite Scott Thorne to a meeting and ask his help in creating a data model.
3. Show the data model to Susan Minai Azary.
4. Invite Brenda Gillingham or Joanne Hallisey to help write an RFP.
5. Show the vendor responses to the Integration Group and ask them to
advise in the group's choice of a vendor.
6. Ask Greg or Scott (or anyone else who can help) to check on other
existing systems at MIT that might have some of the features we're looking
for.
Issues: Due to the OCR Director's busy schedule, the team will not resume
meeting until the third week or fourth week in January. I'll try to set up
a weekly meeting but am not sure this will be appropriate for this group.
Key learnings: I'll leave this section blank for awhile.
Team dynamics: see above.
Additional comments: I'll leave this section blank for awhile.
