About This Document

Project Oversight Process Memorandum – DoIT, July 2007

“Project management plan” is a formal document approved by the executive sponsor and the Department and developed in the plan phase used to manage project execution, control, and project close.

The primary uses of the project plan are to document planning assumptions and decisions, facilitate communication among stakeholders, and documents approved scope, cost and schedule baselines.

A project plan includes at least other plans for issue escalation, change control, communications, deliverable review and acceptance, staff acquisition, and risk management.

“Project manager” means a qualified person from the lead agency responsible for all aspects of the project over the entire project management lifecycle (initiate, plan, execute, control, close). The project manager must be familiar with project scope and objectives, as well as effectively coordinate the activities of the team. In addition, the project manager is responsible for developing the project plan and project schedule with the project team to ensure timely completion of the project. The project manager interfaces with all areas affected by the project including end users, distributors, and vendors. The project manager ensures adherence to the best practices and standards of the Department.

Project product” means the final project deliverables as defined in the project plan meeting all agreed and approved acceptance criteria.

“Product development life cycle” is a series of sequential, non-overlapping phases comprised of iterative disciplines such as requirements, analysis and design, implementation, test and deployment implemented to build a product or develop a service.

Project Management Plan for CID Permitting and Inspections

1.0 Project Overview

The Regulation and Licensing Department is using a legacy permitting and inspection system that does not meet the needs of the agency the construction industries division or the administrative services division. Moving to a modern solution deployed on modern and current technologies will streamline the business process both internally and to the client’s base of the permitting system. All business functions will be enhanced and many internal processed that are currently manual will be automated and streamlined. Ultimately the agency will have increased reporting and managerial tools for day to day operations. The administrative services division will have enhanced reporting and revenue reconciliation tools with a direct tie in to the share financial system. The general public will see a decrease in time to the certificate of occupancy on new development state wide.

1.1Executive Summary- rationale for the Project

The State of New Mexico Regulation and Licensing Department- Construction Industries Division seeks to upgrade its current Kiva software to the latest technology. The Contractor understands the State’s desire to upgrade to a modern solution and is pleased to offer the Contractor Automation platform as a solution for permitting, licensing, compliance, inspection management, and more.

Regulation and Licensing is proposing an upgrade of Kiva to Contractor Automation to meet your project requirements via a single, highly configurable solution designed to manage your permitting, licensing, compliance, and inspection processes. This COTS solution is built around a robust workflow manager that matches our established workflows to enforce our business rules and notify involved parties as tasks are assigned and completed. This allows the agency to streamline processes, reduce the time and effort to process permits and licenses, initiate and manage compliance cases, and conduct inspections.

Contractor Automation also makes it easier for contractors and residents to apply for permits, check the status of an application, estimate fees, and schedule inspections via a robust web portal. Contractor Automation also offers powerful Electronic Document Review technology, making it easier to do business with your customers and archive documents in the Document Management System.

The Regulation and Licensing Department will utilize the Chief Information officer and IT Business Analyst as dual project managers to manage the overall project. There will also be an Application Developer III, and Application Developer II assigned full time to the project. The IT Business Analyst and Application Developer I will also assist on the project. Other IT staff will also be involved in the software deployment and configuration. There will also be a team of existing Construction Industries staff assigned to the project to ensure the business needs of the division are being addressed and met accordingly. This team will be responsible for system configuration, testing, user acceptance, training and deployment leading to project closeout.

In this section identify and describe how each risk will be managed. Include the steps that will be taken to maximize activity that will result in minimizing probability and impact of each risk.

[Full Time NM Project Manager]

Description –The lack of a full time PM puts risk on the overall management and schedule of the project. This is due to funding limitations. / Probability / Impact
Mitigation Strategy: The migration strategy is to utilize the IT Business Analyst as much as possible to assist in Project Management duties wherever possible. Furthermore all IT FTE are currently filled allotting more time for the Project Management duties by the CIO and the IT Business Analyst.
Contingency Plan: Co Management by CIO and IT Business Analyst
