Project Overall Health

Comments

Green

During the February reporting period, the overall project health remained Green. The project continued progressing through the implementation phase with development, testing, and defect resolution activities expanding across multiple system components. Governance structures, cost performance, scope execution, and resource capacity remained stable. Time Management remained in Yellow status due to emerging schedule risks associated with testing progress and iteration validation activities that may affect the planned May 2026 Go-Live timeline for TAMS2. Overall, the project continues progressing through implementation activities while monitoring schedule risks identified during system validation.

Focus Area/Rating	Comments
Governance Green	Governance remained Green and continued operating under established oversight structures. Regular project status meetings with the project sponsor, vendor coordination meetings, and technical coordination sessions supported ongoing alignment across development, testing, and defect resolution activities. Communication between CDT oversight and the project also continued through scheduled status updates, providing visibility into schedule performance and project risks as implementation activities progressed.
Time Management Yellow	Time Management remained Yellow, consistent with the January assessment. While the project continues executing against the revised schedule established following Contract Amendment 2, ongoing testing and iteration validation activities have identified potential risks to meeting the planned May 2026 Go-Live date. The project team and vendor are currently reviewing testing progress and remaining work to determine whether adjustments to the project schedule will be required.
Cost & Contract Management Green	Cost and Contract Management remained Green. Project expenditures continue to align with the approved budget baseline. As of February 2026, total cumulative expenditures are $12,681,159, representing approximately 40 percent of the approved $31,978,127 total project budget or 46% of the total one-time project cost. Contract Amendment 2 remains in effect and continues to provide vendor support through the revised implementation and transition timeline.
Scope Management Green	Scope Management remained Green. Development and system configuration activities continued across Asset Optimizer functionality, dashboards, workflows, and reporting components. These activities represent continued implementation and refinement of system capabilities within the scope approved under SPR 1. No scope changes were introduced during the reporting period.
Resources Green	Resource Management remained Green. State and vendor teams continued supporting development, testing, data integration, and defect resolution activities across multiple technical and functional workstreams. Current staffing levels appear aligned with the project’s implementation needs, and no staffing shortages or resource availability concerns were reported.
Quality Green	Quality Management remained Green. Testing and validation activities continued across system workflows, data integration processes, and dashboards as development progressed through additional iterations. Defect triage and resolution activities continued through regular coordination between the vendor and State teams, supporting ongoing system validation ahead of formal User Acceptance Testing.
Risk And Issues Green	Risks and Issues remained Green. Current testing progress indicates that additional defects may be discovered as system validation continues, which could affect readiness for User Acceptance Testing and the planned Go-Live timeline. The project team has engaged the department’s testing resources earlier than originally planned to strengthen validation activities and improve testing readiness.
Transition Readiness Green	Transition Readiness remained Green. Organizational Change Management and training preparation activities continued as the project advanced toward formal testing activities. Training materials and system documentation are being developed to support dashboards, workflows, and administrative functions, and approximately sixty UAT scripts were prepared to support upcoming testing activities. These activities continue to support preparation for eventual system deployment and transition to Maintenance and Operations.
Conditions For Approval Green	During the February 2026 reporting period, the Conditions for Approval focus area retained its Green rating. • The integrated project schedule and Test Management Plan requirements have been met. • The Transition to Maintenance and Operations Plan remains in progress. Submission six months before the project end date is required.
