E-Scheduling Shared Resources<br />
Scheduling shared resources was accomplished by various manual means<br />
specific to the resource itself. Locating resources <strong>for</strong> meetings required<br />
employees to go to the various divisions and learn a variety of manual<br />
procedures.<br />
The e-scheduling team automated the scheduling of shared resources through<br />
use of Microsoft Outlook Calendar scheduler. They created a user manual of the<br />
automated process and put it on the agency shared drive <strong>for</strong> all to access. The<br />
team leader then held a series of training sessions. Implementation was in<br />
stages so staff could get used to the new system. The automated scheduling<br />
system now includes the conference rooms <strong>for</strong> all divisions, the audio/visual<br />
equipment, and the agency HQ vehicles.<br />
