2. Management <strong>of</strong> the Departmental Plone Project (DPP) and<br />
escalation <strong>of</strong> issues<br />
The Departmental Plone Project (DPP) is the sister project <strong>to</strong> the corporate <strong>web</strong><strong>site</strong> redevelopment<br />
project (CWR) – which is complete. Both seek <strong>to</strong> significantly raise the standard <strong>of</strong> the <strong>University</strong>'s<br />
<strong>web</strong><strong>site</strong>; enabling it <strong>to</strong> be a strategic communications medium, essential <strong>to</strong> supporting the business<br />
activity and trajec<strong>to</strong>ry <strong>of</strong> the <strong>University</strong>. The DPP was mandated by the IT Portfolio Board, chaired by<br />
the Registrar, and has support from the Colleges.<br />
The project will be managed by a Project Board comprising:-<br />
• Helen Pennack –(Marketing Communications) – who will act both as the Project<br />
Executive and represent the needs <strong>of</strong> Corporate Services<br />
• From the Colleges, the Direc<strong>to</strong>rs <strong>of</strong> Administration who will represent the needs <strong>of</strong> the<br />
Academic Departments<br />
• Multimedia Services team who will be involved in helping <strong>to</strong> develop and implement the<br />
new <strong>web</strong><strong>site</strong>s<br />
The Project Board is responsible for ensuring the overall success <strong>of</strong> the project by delivering a cost<br />
effective and acceptable solution. The Board will review the DPP migration plan at regular intervals<br />
during the course <strong>of</strong> the project and will be the final arbiters if a decision is required <strong>to</strong> move a<br />
<strong>department</strong> or service in<strong>to</strong> a different cohort<br />
The project team will periodically report <strong>to</strong> the Board on progress and any issues can be escalated <strong>to</strong><br />
the Board via Jon Gunnell or Jon Shears (see below) at any point during the project.<br />
