Please confirm the submitted resource can be available.* *Short Description:* FA is the functional expert for an application, a defined set of applications or a portfolio of related applications. FA is also responsible for bringing an understanding of the enterprise, business system and industry to the team(s). *Complete Description:* The key responsibility of the Functional Architect (FA) is to function as technical Business Analyst (BA) who will work with the Project Manager and Technical Team to help facilitate the migration from the existing portal environment for those agencies that choose SharePoint Option 1, 2 or 3 (defined below). Tasks: • Familiarize with the options defined below and the benefits each provide. An educational website has been created for agencies to use to better understand what option works best for them. This Functional Architect is to use this site to understand these options and the functional opportunities each provides. Technical Team members are available to aid in clarifications. • Assist agencies in the documentation of business requirements, objectives, deliverables, and specifications on a project-by-project or site-by-site basis in collaboration with agency representatives. Spreadsheets have been created and distributed to portal agencies, inventorying the content they have in the portal. Agencies may request help (via the Project Manager) from the BA in organizing this information and applying the content they have to the options defined below. o Translating business requirements from multiple agencies to the offered SharePoint options, i.e. running in SharePoint Online 2013, SharePoint 2013 On-Premise or a hybrid of these environments. o Working with the project manager and agency team leads to decide what data to migrate/maintain in SharePoint 2013. o Assisting with the creation of a data/content migration strategy which will recommend, design and lay out the detailed SharePoint 2013 migration path for all of an agencies content. • Reporting activity status at a frequency requested by the Project Manager. • Managing assigned project activities to meet the timelines, budget, and stakeholder requirements/quality set out in the approved Project Charter, schedule and other plans. *Agencies will be given several options in order to accommodate their internal portal sites:* 1. They can leverage the Commonwealth’s SharePoint 2013 On-Premises service offering, which is currently being built and expected to be available for use December 2014 2. They can deploy Office 365, which includes the use of SharePoint Online 2013 software 3. The can go with a hybrid approach that involves some combination of the two previously stated options In some cases the contents of existing internal portal sites is old and no longer needed to support Commonwealth business. Decommissioning these artifacts will eliminate the need to migrate them, which will reduce the overall migration effort. Agencies will be required to conduct a comprehensive review of their internal portal sites, and each and every artifact will need to be reviewed by the respective agency to determine if it should indeed be migrated or archived and decommissioned. This review may represent a significant lift for some agencies, but the findings will provide the information needed in order to select the migration strategy that represents the best fit for the agency. Once agencies complete the comprehensive review of their internal portal sites and determine their migration strategy based on the options made available, agencies will then proceed with the migration of their sites. Agency migrations using the SharePoint Online 2013 (Office 365) or the SharePoint 2013 On-Premises platforms will be prioritized and scheduled by BADS. As agencies complete their migrations, their WCI sites will be decommissioned within a reasonable timeframe, not to exceed six months, to ensure that content has been migrated and archived successfully. Agencies will be required to adhere to records retention policies throughout this process. Another key component of this project is training. BADS, in coordination with the Technology Investment Management Office (TIMO), will recommend a training plan for those agencies that elect options A, B or C. This training will encompass end-user, super user, administrator and developer needs. Training will be essential for the migration of the internal portal sites, and as agencies migrate to the new platforms, the users of existing internal sites will need to be trained on the newer technology. *High Level Goals and Objectives* Goal: Migrate internal portal sites to new, supported platforms *Objectives: * 1. BADS will present migration options to agencies by November 2014, and provide them with the information necessary so that they can make informed decisions regarding their migration strategy. 2. Agencies will complete a comprehensive review of their existing internal portal sites by March 2015, so that sites and their content that are no longer needed can be decommissioned rather than migrated unnecessarily. 3. Agencies will migrate their portal sites by November 2016, according to the migration strategy they determined. BADS will provide assistance to those agencies that opt for SharePoint Online 2013 (Office 365), SharePoint 2013 *On-Premises or the hybrid approach.* Goal: Ensure a smooth transition for agencies to the new platforms *Objectives: * 1. BADS will provide ongoing oversight for the overall migration effort, managing issues that arise and facilitating open communication among Skill Required / Desired Amount of Experience Experience working as a Technical Business Analyst Required 2 Years Experience documenting business requirements, objectives, and specifications Required 2 Years Experience assisting with the creation of a data/content migration strategy Required 1 Years Ability to effectively manage workload and project timelines Required 2 Years Knowledge of SharePoint 2013 Required 1 Years Project Communications responsibilities Required 2 Years Excellent organizational skills, strong attention to detail Required 2 Years Excellent written and oral communication skills Required 2 Years *Thank you, and have a great day.* *Thank you, and have a great day.* *Thanks,* *Ranjith Nair* *|**ranj...@softsages.com* <rani...@softsages.com>*|* *Direct No - **484 772 8154* <14847728154>* | 484 402 7869 X 104 |* *Softsages LLC | A e-verified, MBE certified corporation**.* *In case of my unavailability, you can reach my manager, Aman at 484 604 0603 / **a...@softsages.com* <a...@softsages.com> -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "International SAP Projects" group.
