IT Challenges
• Lack of visibility into the allocation of
resources
• Inconsistent approach in the use of
project management tools and
methodologies across the organization
• Poor communication of project
information between team members, and
with other interested parties
• Difficulty in having an accurate view of
the current state of the project portfolio
(resource availability, cost, schedules)
Increasing demand of proposals/projects with
limited highly skilled resources and budgets.
Some of the challenges identified were:

their associated costs

throughout the organization
Through consultation with Western
Principles the following business goals and

![Page 17: City of Surrey Project Server 2007 Implementation · City of Surrey Project Server 2007 Implementation Microsoft Municipal Executive Briefing - Dec 1-2, 2010 Eileen Iverson PMP Spencer](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042002/5e6e4c130f2e5f43af40ce8b/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Resourcing – Process Changes
• Black Market for Resource Acquisition was eliminated
• Cake, cookies and chocolate are still accepted but they will not get buy you
any resource time!
• Resource Managers pro-actively prevent/monitor over allocations
• Project Managers request resource time from Resource Managers
• Resources are no longer bombarded by requests from Project Managers
• Resource conflicts are raised and addressed by all levels of the organization
• Project Managers use “generic resources” for capacity planning

What Processes changed
so that Project Information
could be collected?
![Page 36: City of Surrey Project Server 2007 Implementation · City of Surrey Project Server 2007 Implementation Microsoft Municipal Executive Briefing - Dec 1-2, 2010 Eileen Iverson PMP Spencer](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042002/5e6e4c130f2e5f43af40ce8b/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Project Information – Process Changes
• Resources are required to fill in timesheets on a daily basis [carrot vs. stick]
• Resources rely on their MyTasks page to determine what they should be
working on
• WBS standards being set for PMO
• Management logs into the system to see customized views of projects and
resources [no more outdated files being sent via email]
• Standardize on Project Scheduling techniques (TEDCRAP) = Dynamic
Scheduling
![Page 37: City of Surrey Project Server 2007 Implementation · City of Surrey Project Server 2007 Implementation Microsoft Municipal Executive Briefing - Dec 1-2, 2010 Eileen Iverson PMP Spencer](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042002/5e6e4c130f2e5f43af40ce8b/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)

state of my Project Portfolio?

What was the Impact
of the changes?
![Page 44: City of Surrey Project Server 2007 Implementation · City of Surrey Project Server 2007 Implementation Microsoft Municipal Executive Briefing - Dec 1-2, 2010 Eileen Iverson PMP Spencer](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042002/5e6e4c130f2e5f43af40ce8b/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Impact of Changes
• Clear visibility into resource allocation
across the Enterprise
• Clear visibility into Projects overall
• Ability to forecast the availability of skills
for future projects. Now the IT
Organization can answer the question
“Do we have the resources to complete
these new initiatives?” with facts as
opposed to conjecture.
• Fast response to budget variances due to
the fact that project budgets are tracked
in “real-time” and displayed in a
dashboard.
• Fast response to schedule and cost
variances
![Page 45: City of Surrey Project Server 2007 Implementation · City of Surrey Project Server 2007 Implementation Microsoft Municipal Executive Briefing - Dec 1-2, 2010 Eileen Iverson PMP Spencer](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042002/5e6e4c130f2e5f43af40ce8b/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Impact of Changes
• More value for each IT dollar spent due to the
implementation of standard, repeatable
processes across the organization
• The ability to continue to grow in Project
Management Maturity as a result of a system
that can adapt to their changing requirements.
• More time for strategic planning and pro-active
management due to the timely information
provided by Project Server.
• The PM Handbook and deliverables matrix are
two key process deliverables that have helped
streamline the overall project lifecycle.
• Ability to “Protect the Plan” to ensure that; the
business value is achieved, the critical
success factors are met, the team is focused
on the goal, and the stakeholders are properly
engaged.

COS Post Implementation Maturity Score = 3.0
![Page 47: City of Surrey Project Server 2007 Implementation · City of Surrey Project Server 2007 Implementation Microsoft Municipal Executive Briefing - Dec 1-2, 2010 Eileen Iverson PMP Spencer](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042002/5e6e4c130f2e5f43af40ce8b/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Lessons Learned
• General Business Goals, Specific Business
Objectives, Stakeholders involved,
Assumptions are well understood before
engagement
• Business Processes need to be clearly
defined
• Significant Organizational change was
required and a plan to mitigate the effects of
that change is beneficial
• Technology is just an enabler. It’s important
to make it clear to the client that the
deployment is as much about people, process,
strategy and organizational change as it is
about Technology.
• Do not underestimate the value of the
Envisioning Process
There were a number of Lessons
Learned during the EPM Project:
