Goals
- Assist RB's work on the proposal preparation for the EWHIP4 (East-West Highway Infrastructure Project) project
- SoftXS is prepared to sponsor Work Organiser systems for RB in order to:
- Develop Works Organiser configurations for project proposals for roadways (and other project type) projects
- Develop Works Organiser configurations for project systems for roadways (and other project type) projects
- Assist RB's development of a person reference library of technical and engineering documentation
- Solicit feedback from RB for:
- Suggested improvements and features V2
- Suggestions for appropriate documentation for V2
Deliverables

Plan
To be reviewed and re-prioritized
Configuration information from [RB 2014.01.30]
- List of roadways related engineering disciplines
- Folder structure - WBS
- WBS for proposal preparation
- WBS for project work
- List of sub-consultant and other organizations involved in the proposal preparation and the future project
- Review revision types
- Update prototype system with updated classification lists
- General review of classification system and classification lists
- Create a list of users
- Defined as external uses (until they are
- Need: first name, last name, phone number(s), email address, company name
- Get names of people involved who are producing documents, reviewing documents, receiving documents
- Define task types
- List of EWHIP4 documents (as excel list of titles)
- Assign classification information to the documents
- Load the document titles into the system
- Load the document files into the system
- Revision (final) files
- Working files
- Construction a revision history, including emails, notes, etc. to demonstrate how complete revision preparation history and process can be captured in the system.
Future Directions
- Develop checklists and document lists for preparing project proposals
- Develop document templates for project proposals
- Approach the WOrld Bank to promote a system that would assist projects that fund to use appropriate proposal preparation and project management methods
- System configured for proposal preparation with checklists
- Migration path to project management within the same system
