RISKS & ISSUES
ISSUE 1: Late completion of procurement will delay implementation: Minimum of 6 weeks delay to EST103 including Delivery Packages GoLive. We started “generic” planning and design in advance of knowing the identity of the application that will be installed to smooth and speed the implementation.
RISK 2: Too much change happening at the same time in Estates limiting the availability of Estates Resource at the right time: Good governance and stakeholder management.
RISK 3: Unable to recruit new staff into Estates in time to support the new operating model which is required to successfully transition to the new application: Working on TOM, roles & responsibilities matrix leading to gap analysis to identify existing colleagues that can cover the work were possible.
RISK 4: Existing data will not be of required quality to migrate to the new system: Thorough data analysis   exercise supported by 3rd party experience, early start to data cleansing, clear plan for cut-over.
RISK 5: Technical Integrations may be more extensive & difficult than expected: work with identified third party supplier as early as possible to understand the number of integrations required and options. Set expectations with the business.
RISK 6: 3rd party risks –   cultural, relationship, availability: Full OJEU procurement exercise (EST102) and contract, Support agreement, Hosting agreement, focus on   experience of 3rd party team during the procurement cycle.
