I-MANAGE Program Approach
Historical Timeline for I-MANAGE
  • The Business Management Information System
    Financial Management (BMIS-FM) contract was
    awarded after a competitive bidding process.
  • Included a live test demonstration by 3 different
    bidders.
  • Contract award based on 557 business/technical
    requirements.
  • The scope of work for this contract included core
    financials, budget execution, and financial
    reporting.
  • JFMIP certified software and required hardware to
    support.
  • Optional performance objectives within the
    contract included budget formulation, project
    management, inventory, property, purchasing,
    travel, executive information, acquisition
    (procurement), and customer relationship
    management.

Complete Prepare Phase.
BMIS-FM Contract Awarded, Team IBM begins work in
Germantown with DOE counterparts
BMIS-FM renamed to BMIS Phoenix
BMIS-FM Business Case completed
BMIS-FM RFQ Released
  • Contract awarded on September 5, 2000.
  • Team IBM resources were assigned to an integrated
    project team with federal counterparts from DOE.
  • Team IBM business partners included Oracle
    Consulting, SAIC, Arthur Andersen, and 8A
    businesses
  • IBM RS/6000 hardware was installed in November
    2000.
  • Oracle Federal Financials v11.03 was loaded and
    made available in early December, 2000.

I-MANAGE Program Approach
Historical Timeline for I-MANAGE
IG report issued, Mitre study completed, I-MANAGE
Vision created by Dr. Carnes
Briefings for DOE Exec. Steering Committee, OMB,
Congress
Successful test of Integrated Contractor Interface
BMIS Phoenix slowdown for Mitre Study
Completed 2 Conference Room Pilots (CRPs)
Upgrade to Oracle V11i, fully web-based
JRC Conference
Complete Focus Phase
Complete Design Phase
  • As part of the Phoenix Project, two CRPs were
    held to test proposed configuration settings for
    the Oracle software based on the original 557
    requirements provided during the RFQ.
  • I-MANAGE addressed issues raised by OMB, the IG,
    and the Mitre study.
  • The I-MANAGE Program superseded the Phoenix
    Project which became the I-MANAGE STARS Project
    within I-MANAGE.

I-MANAGE Program Administration
Chris Simpson Program Manager
  • Program Office
  • Umbrella organization over all projects in
    I-MANAGE Portfolio.
  • Program staff provide oversight, guidance to all
    projects.
  • Establishes enterprise vision by coordinating
    multiple projects to achieve the I-MANAGE vision.
  • Allows individual Project Managers to focus on
    their specific scope, mission.

Ed Golden Deputy Program Mgr
TBD Program Control
  • Earned value oversight
  • Testing guidance / verification / validation
  • Program requirements baseline
  • Enterprise architecture alignment
  • Integrated I-MANAGE Data Model
  • Coordinated communications

I-MANAGE Program Administration
Chris Simpson Program Manager
  • I-MANAGE Project Portfolio
  • Individual project initiatives with specific
    mission, defined scope.
  • Temporary lifetime once system is transitioned
    to production, project teams disband.
  • Will need support from various groups,
    individuals throughout the organization.
  • In many cases, the same people will be asked to
    support two or more projects.
  • Project planning, initiation, execution, control,
    closing
  • Individual POAMs, detailed project plans using MS
    Project
  • Earned value management for each project
  • Bi-weekly project status reports
  • Common deliverables across projects
  • Deliverables specific to single projects

Chris Simpson Program Manager
  • Team IBM Support
  • Grouped by domain areas of expertise, with
    support provide by various business partners.
  • IBM, as the prime contractor, provides a single
    point of control for the Department.
  • Provides expertise in each of the areas
    displayed.
  • Focused on knowledge transfer, turnover to
    Federal co-team members.
  • Project planning, initiation, execution, control,
    closing
  • Leverage business partners to provide resources
    based on discounted GSA rates
  • Bring resources to bear as needed, then release
  • Based on IBMs Method Blue, Oracles AIM using an
    SEI CMM-I approach

I-MANAGE Program Approach
I-MANAGE Program Administration Decision
Framework
HINT When raising issues, each group should
provide background, alternatives, and a
recommendation.
I-MANAGE Program Manager will address issue.
When decision requires consensus of programs, or
when necessary, escalate to the I-MANAGE Steering
Committee.

Process
  • Project management best practices embodied in
    this approach
  • Add quality control and visibility to each
    activity and step

    System Project will begin detailed requirements
    analysis in 3rd quarter, FY03.
  • The I-MANAGE Data Warehouse is also schedule to
    go live on October 1, 2004 by its nature, a data
    warehouse continues to grow and evolve.

I-MANAGE Standard Budget System Production
Start-up TBD
  • The I-MANAGE Standard Budget System will ramp up
    in FY 04, running in parallel with the STARS and
    I-MANAGE Data Warehouse project.
  • Careful design will be necessary to ensure that
    the planned integration takes place as smoothly
    as possible.
  • This is accomplished by a proper architectural
    model and approach, the use of standard
    application programming interfaces (APIs),
    selection of open technology architectures (e.g.
    Oracle on a UNIX based platform), and an
    enterprise data dictionary.

Project Management Realities
  • What is Project Management?
  • Project management balances competing demands of

Time (duration)
Cost (resources)
Quality
Scope (work)
Equation for Project Management Formula work
duration resources
14
I-MANAGE Program Approach
Project Management Realities
  • Project management balances competing demands
    of
  • Stakeholders with differing needs, expectations
  • Identified requirements (needs)
  • Unidentified requirements (expectations)
  • Hint expectations should be translated to needs

    Pieces Together

To Gain Maximum Benefit in Deploying ERP Systems,
You Combine
End-User Training

performance and stress testing planned at the
beginning of each project
Oracle Federal Financials V11i, PeopleSoft HR v8,
Standard Budget System TBD, eProcurement TBD all
packages align with a common architecture
rigorous, multi-level testing throughout each
project
Early core team training, orientation
class-room training using a train the trainers
model computer based instruction
post-implementation followup to ensure quality of
training, conduct retraining as required

  • Grouped separately, but part of STARS, I-MANAGE
    Data Warehouse, I-MANAGE Standard Budget
  • Functionality will be incorporated in the
    software used for those integrated systems

I-MANAGE Program Approach
I-MANAGE Project Initiatives
  • I-MANAGE Standard Budget (FY 2005)
  • Will build on work of original Phoenix Budget
    Formulation Team
  • Analysis activities, requirements development
    will occur in parallel with STARS, I-MANAGE Data
    Warehouse, Cost Accounting Performance
