18. 18 Contract Process

19. 19 Pre-Implementation Contract Process Developed & Released Request For Proposal (RFP) – 6 month process Formed Evaluation Committee and Procurement Negotiating Committee Conducted demonstrations and oral interviews Recommendation made to Procurement Negotiating Committee Developed detailed Statement of Work Negotiated Contracts and awarded to:

20. 20 Overview, Scope, Objectives and Success Factors

21. 21 Pre-Implementation Project Overview Execute the Sunflower Project On-Time and On-Budget Go-Live on July, 1, 2010 – the beginning of State Fiscal Year 2011 Implement a full suite of PeopleSoft Financials (Version 9.0) Use a “Big Bang” approach –Go-Live at same time with all scope and all agencies Replace STARS, SOKI and other identified central systems Decommission over 60 agency programmatic systems Fully integrate SHARP with financial accounting Interface with over 50 agency systems

22. 22 Pre-Implementation Project Scope Time & Labor Projects & Grants Asset Management Accounts Receivable/Billing Purchasing Accounts Payable General Ledger Data Warehouse & Reporting

23. 23 Pre-Implementation Project Objectives Improve efficiency Improve decision-making and reporting Improve transparency Improve customer service Integrate the state’s administrative workforce Integrate and standardize the state’s business processes Integrate the state’s technology investment Strike a balance between central policies, standardized business processes, best practices and decentralization

24. 24 Project Management Success Factors Implement purchasing, accounting, asset management, data warehousing and reporting functions using a single integrated platform that will streamline core administrative functions. Strike a balance between central policies, business process standardization, best practices and decentralization – enabling agencies to configure some elements of the system specifically for their agencies (i.e., workflow routing and budget thresholds) and address the concerns and needs of large and small agencies alike. Move as many financial and administrative functions onto a single software platform and decommission legacy systems, as appropriate, so that agencies can focus resources on the specialized programmatic systems and business processes that are germane to agencies’ missions.

25. 25 Project Management Success Factors Gain efficiencies by eliminating dual entry of data and the need for manual reconciliation. Gain efficiencies by redesigning and automating business processes. Provide the data and analysis tools for agencies to: –measure and improve internal performance –improve management decision-making –to improve customer service. Minimize customizations to the software to reduce software lifecycle costs. Implement the full scope of the project on-time, on-budget and deliver a quality product for Sponsors, Steering Committee, Stakeholders and Customers.
