Digital Transformation at the University of Edinburgh /slideshow/digital-transformation-at-the-university-of-edinburgh/75547257 digitaltransformationattheuniversityofedinburgh-170430174846
This slide set provides an overview of the Digital Transformation portfolio of projects being led by Information Services at the University of Edinburgh. The slide set provides the current position on 30th April 2017. We'll update the slideset as work progresses. Digital Transformation is about more than just technology. Our goal is to adopt new "digital first" ways of working which leverage technology, further our mission and provide a world class experience for our students and staff. Digital Transformation is a major, multi-year portfolio of programmes and projects. The current programmes are: - Enterprise APIs - to develop a flexible and secure API framework to support development and deployment of user focused solutions more quickly and at lower cost - Enterprise Data Warehouse - to provide a standards based, flexible and integrated platform for business intelligence and management information - User Experience Services - to improve the digital experience by focusing on user-centred design through consistent standards, user experience services and training - User Centred Portal and Notifications - to develop a new user-centred interface for the University Enterprise Portal (MyEd) - Engagement - to drive engagement with Digital Transformation across the University and provide a governance framework for projects that are not part of other programmes A further tranche of programmes and projects will come on stream later in 2017 with a the portfolio of work to be completed by Summer 2020. ]]>

This toolkit provides an overview of the principles behind benefits realisation and some basic tools for use in projects. The toolkit also provide signposts to more sophisticated techniques that are available should a project require them. Benefits management aims to ensure that benefits that have been identified at the start of a project are realised and that any benefits that emerge as the project progresses are properly exploited. As many project benefits are not realised until after the project is closed it is important that appropriate structures are put in place to monitor benefits realisation post project. This toolkit was developed based on best practice at the University of Sheffield. The toolkit was published by the UCISA Project and Change Management Group in September 2016.]]>

Risk Management is one of the most important tools available to the Project Manager to help successfully deliver complex projects. Yet, at the same time, Risk Management can be difficult to understand and, if used without insight and expertise, costly and ineffective. This guidance has been developed to assist staff who are managing or participating in IT and business change projects. It has been developed by the UCISA Project and Change Management Group and is based on best practice guidance provided by PRINCE2 and experience of delivering major IT and business change projects at the University of Sheffield, University of Edinburgh, Lancaster University and Edinburgh Napier University. The guidance is relevant for projects being managed and delivered using any methodology and is complementary to the UCISA Major Project Governance Assessment Toolkit. This toolkit was published by the UCISA Project and Change Management Group in December 2015.]]>

UCISA Major Projects Governance Assessment Toolkit /slideshow/ucisa-major-projects-governance-assessment-toolkit/75478712 pcmg-mpgatoolkitfinalpdf-170427185419
Often there is a lack of consistency and rigour in the governance approach to major business change and IT projects. This can lead to significant cost overruns and project failure. Major Projects require a more rigorous approach to governance and project management to deliver success. This Toolkit has been developed to assist staff who are managing or participating in major change projects. The Toolkit provides: a) guidance on assessing which projects should be classed as Major Projects b) the key governance elements that must be managed for Major Projects c) an assessment tool for project governance to help ensure that the required governance actions are established and work effectively throughout the life of the project d) a visualisation tool for project governance which gives a view of the project as it currently stands and the changes since the last review e) case studies on the use of the Toolkit at the University of Edinburgh The Toolkit has been designed to be complementary to existing project and change management processes. The Toolkit fills an important gap by providing a repeatable assessment process that covers all aspects of governance for Major Projects. The Toolkit can be used as a reference point and checklist for any project. The Toolkit was originally developed by Mark Ritchie at the University of Edinburgh. The toolkit has been used successfully by the University on many major software and business change projects. Mark further developed the toolkit with support from the UCISA Project and Change Management Group. UCISA published the toolkit, to widespread positive reviews, in July 2014.]]>

Compliance IT Project Categories /slideshow/compliance-it-project-categories/73341276 complianceitprojectcategoriesv3-170320085146
Compliance IT projects we have to do them but no one is happy with the cost. The first step in managing the cost of IT compliance is to understand the drives. Within Information Services at the University of Edinburgh we've found using the following categories for analysing IT compliance. This single slide identifes and defines our three main compliance categories - LEGISLATIVE, TECHNOLOGY and SECURITY. The slide also suggests who will be involved in making the decision as whether the project genuinely is needed for compliance within each category. ]]>

The University of Edinburgh is leading the UK HE sector in providing a world class IT solution to support research management from project idea through costing, bid, award, post-award management and closure. The new Worktribe Research Management system, which was procured and developed jointly with Heriot-Watt University, was launched on 18th April 2016. Worktribe was successfully piloted from November 2015 with a School or Research Institute from each College. The three Pilots Schools combined to provide over 1,000 active bids and projects to be managed in the new system. The real world testing provided by the pilot highlighted that that the solution worked. The Pilot increased confidence in the solution within the project team, Pilot Schools and User Groups. The Pilot also identified some business challenges and technical problems enabling these to be investigated and resolved ahead of the roll-out across the University. This presentation provides a high level overview of the project and the lessons learned.]]>

Universities and colleges are constantly undertaking significant change activities. These activities will typically be managed using existing institutional project and change management processes. Often, however, there is a lack of consistency and rigour in the governance approach. This can lead to significant cost overruns and project failure when confronted with the challenges of a major change project. Major projects require a more rigorous approach to governance and project management to deliver success. The UCISA Major Project Governance Assessment Toolkit has been developed to assist staff who are managing or participating in major change projects. The toolkit provides: a) guidance on assessing which projects should be classed as Major b) the key governance elements that must be managed for Major projects c) an assessment tool for project governance to help ensure that the required governance actions are established and work effectively throughout the life of the project d) a visualisation tool for project governance which gives a view of the project as it currently stands and the changes since the last review e) case studies on the use of the toolkit at the University of Edinburgh The toolkit has been designed to be complementary to existing project and change management processes. The toolkit fills an important gap by providing a repeatable assessment process that covers all aspects of governance for Major Projects. The toolkit can be used as a reference point and checklist for any project. This presentation is from the UCISA15 conference in Ednburgh and may be useful for any organisation wishing to adopt the toolkit.]]>

The toolkit fills an important gap by providing a repeatable assessment process that covers all aspects of governance for Major Projects. The toolkit can be used as a reference point and checklist for any project. This presentation is from the UCISA15 conference in Ednburgh and may be useful for any organisation wishing to adopt the toolkit.
