  1. IOWAccess Customer Comments Possible Solutions

  2. How’d We Get Here • East Coast Prejudice • Not in Government • Charity Board • Unknown Agency • Happy to Hear Complaints

  3. Customer Comments • “Do you know WHY that money is not being spent??!?!?!?” • Negative Comments • That’s where I started • That’s human nature • That’s valid • Also got good comments • Whoo hoo! • Spreadsheet

  4. Negative Comments Summary • No ITE accountability • Schedule, schedule, schedule • Budget • Quality • (no mention of hourly rate)

  5. ITE Comments • “Yes, we’ve improved; we want to do better” • DAS (ITE) is not State Appropriated Agency • Building on our existing (and future) infrastructure

  6. My Comments • Need Two Things to have IOWAccess be a success….to build eGovernment Access for the Citizens of Iowa. • Vendor Accountability • ITE • Agency IT Staff • Outsource • Build a “strong basement” to Iowa’s Information House

  7. Strong Information Infrastructure • - Enterprise Standards/Adherence • + Reduces Maintenance Costs • + Allows for greater ‘re-use’ • - TGB : IOWAccess has no control over this • Control through our documents supporting the process, and review of those documents.

  8. Why ITE NOT the Vendor of Choice (When They are Not) • No Accountability for • Schedule • Schedule • Schedule • Quality • Budget

  9. Solution for Vendor Accountability(Accountability to the Council) • When Funding Is Requested • Agency Shows Completed Documentation to Interested IOWAccess Council Members • Council Approves Funding • Agency negotiates with ITE on reasonable start date. If not agreed, then agency gets another vendor.

  10. What Else Needs to be Done • Training • ITE • Customers • Bootcamp

  11. What This Solution Will Do… • ITE gets first ‘crack’ at being the preferred vendor; builds the strong Iowa Information Infrastructure. • Holds Vendor and Agency Accountable for Schedule • Documentation will hold Vendor and Agency Accountable for Quality and Budget

  12. Motion to… • Recommend to DAS • Bootcamp for today’s projects • IOWAccess Advisory Council Activity • Open Meeting • Why? • Improved Requirements Analysis • Process Refinement

  13. Thank You!
