Project description
Existing Improvement Information Systems had been developed at different times by different people on a range of hardware and software to differing standards.
This project was commissioned to improve the design and operation of improvement information systems in terms of technical robustness, ease of use, consistency and added value to the systems.
ItemPlus undertook a comprehensive review of the existing suite of systems, examining:
- platforms used
- data requirements
- calculations
- data and information sharing
- content of systems
- value and nature of outputs
- potential value of new functions.
A report was presented, proposing the integration of the systems, sharing of data, redesign of outputs and new functionality.
Outcome
The proposal was accepted by senior management. ItemPlus then produced a detailed Business Requirements document, and co-ordinated the selection of a software developer.
The new system has been implemented.
