To: magellan@MIT.EDU

Project Name:  Enterprise Printing

Project Leader:  Dave Lambert

Report Date: 01/13/1999

Accomplishments past period:
- scheduled and prepped for meeting with Advisory Group
- finalized Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) and timeline
- developed Communications Plan
- finished most prep work for the data gathering phase
- identified project deliverables
- reviewed secure distributed printing system thesis
- began to develop a business solutions/requirements list
- continued the development of our Web based Project Notebook
  (see http://web.mit.edu/is/discovery/enter-print/)

Goals for the coming period:
- hold first meeting with Advisory Group
- review sample consultant's report from Xerox and modify
  data gathering plans as needed
- resolve core team staffing issues
- finalize data gathering plan; develop the interview "script";
  begin to schedule interviews
- update Tim McGovern on current efforts in prep for data gathering

Issues:
One team member has been ill and unavailable recently.

Key learnings:
It sure feels better having a clearer "roadmap" (WBS & timeline).

Team dynamics:
The team is really working well together.  We regret that one
team member has not been feeling well - feels like a missing
family member at a holiday dinner table.

Additional comments:
None
