Learning from the Project

In an effort to streamline the financial aid office of Rowan University a project was implemented to make the processes paperless.  The university purchased software called Hyland/Onbase that uses scanners to download documents to process verifications in the financial aid office. The project manager invited all the people involved to participate in the project management software called Basecamp that allowed everyone access to the project and any items that were added or deleted from the project. For two days the project manager, information technology team, client, executive/management team and anyone else that the project manager felt necessary to attend gathered together to discuss resources, the processes, the financial aid management system to develop a plan and schedule.  After the data was collected by the Hyland/Onbase client, the project manager distributed a timeline moving forward until project begins. Thus far we did not include any artifacts or activities to the project that might have made the project more or less successful because it is still a work in progress. I anticipate the management report system created in Oracle Discoverer will be the artifact that will make or break entire project.
