Project Coordination
Our IT Assets & Projects Support may be assigned one or more IT projects. For every project they would be assigned to, they will:
In the initiation phase,
- support the interested Members to assess the opportunity of a new project, gather industrial needs (use cases) and supporting literature, clarify goals and methods and draft the Project description; and
- once the project description is approved by the Projects Committee, liaise with the would-be Participants, identify the required skills, devise and set up the project Workplan (deliverables, tasks, schedule, budget), fostering consensus and engagement.
In the implementation phase (once the Project Agreement is signed):
- depending on its own workload and assignment in the project, act as, or support, the Project Leader;
- prepare the Project Management Board and Project Supervisory Board meetings;
- implement their decisions as far as the project management is concerned, and especially update the Workplan and phased budget;
- contribute to the successful implementation of the project tasks, coordinating and animating the project team, controlling the budget, validating the outputs and checking their adequacy with the project expectations, reporting to the Projects Committee.
At project end:
- validate the project’s scientific publications (or have them validated by the relevant experts);
- check the smooth takeover of the deliverables (Assets), their easy accessibility and dissemination.
Support to corporate activities
Our IT Assets & Projects Support may contribute to:
- every Association’s activity related to Assets, Asset infrastructure, open-source or IT matters;
- the organisation of Association’s events.
