Revised IPR format (@Shawn Strande )
Possible redo of the IPR. This takes it from 10 sections to 4, merges 2 sections, and moved most of the other sections into subsections.
Merge “Benefits and Outcomes Achieved” with “Services Delivered”. Suggest renaming this to “Outcomes and Services Delivered”, and have it be Section 2, right after the Executive Summary.
Make several of the sections subsections in Outcomes and Services Delivered
For things we want to highlight from “Outcomes and Services Delivered”, add a brief summary in Executive Summary section.
Have “Stakeholder Feedback” be a subsection of “Outcomes and Services Delivered”
Create a new section call “Project Management”, with subsections for “Schedule” “Financials”, “Risk Management”, and “Metrics”.
Move what is now “Budget” to the “Financials” subsection
Move what is now “Metrics and Resolutions” to the new “Metrics and Evaluation” subsection of “Project Management”
Redo the “Schedule Status” section as a table and move it to a subsection of “Project Management”
With these changes, the new report format would be something like this:
Executive Summary
Outcomes and Services Delivered
Executive Council Coordination (including what is in the EC Feedback section)
External Advisory Board (including what is in the EAB Feedback Section)
Communications and Outreach
Community Feedback
Project Office
Project Management
Schedule
Financials
Risk Management
Change Management
Metrics and Evaluation
ACO Metrics
Program Wide Metrics
ACO External Evaluation
NSF Feedback and reviews
John was also thinking about making it Metrics Focused as well as an option
flag items with numbers that reference metrics noted
Maybe we can get a proposed outline to Tom this week and move forward with planning report
Target dates - we have a few extra weeks we can add to the deadline per Tom
