On Monday, June 6, CI's IT Policy & Planning Committee met to review the outcomes of the inaugural spring 2016 major project & procurement review cycle. Michael Berman presented the final approved project request list to the President's Cabinet on 6/6, and received positive feedback.

66 project requests were received and reviewed during the spring 2016 cycle. Of the 66 requests, 32 (48%) were approved to continue (or to begin). The remainder were postponed until additional IT resources become available. Postponed project requests may be re-submitted by each division for review during the next cycle. You may view the final spring 2016 approved project list here.

We are also pleased to announce that the fall 2016 project review cycle is now open, and the submission period runs from June 1 - July 15.  Major projects & procurements submitted for this cycle are expected to kick-off in early spring 2016. 

One significant change we've made for the fall cycle is that the project request will be submitted electronically (via TeamDynamix), in replacement of the MS Word form used previously. This update should help streamline electronic collaboration on new project requests and facilitate the submission process. Melissa Bergem, T&C Project Coordinator, has been meeting one-on-one with the DPCs to review the new submissions process.  

The deadline for DPCs to submit their draft project list to T&C for review during this cycle is 5:00PM on July 15. Requests received after July 15 shall not be evaluated by T&C during this cycle. More importantly, major projects or procurements which fail to be submitted during this cycle are not likely to be completed during the 2016-17 fiscal year.
