4 PROJECT VISION 4

5 Project Vision Child Welfare Services-New System (CWS-NS) will provide a new technology platform and suite of digital services to be released incrementally over the next few years. The new digital services will provide an intuitive user experience and new capabilities not currently provided by the existing legacy systems. The new digital services are being developed as a collection of web applications, accessible from both computers and mobile devices. The new digital services will replace the mainframe-based Child Welfare Services/Case Management System (CWS/CMS) in service since

22 KEY CHALLENGES AND LESSONS LEARNED 22

23 Key Issues, Challenges, and Resolutions Beyond Project Control or Influence Project Influence Project Control 23

24 Key Challenges (Within Our Control) Procurement Timeline Continuing to Streamline/Accelerate Procurement Process RFO flow has improved, but timelines remain challenging Working in partnership with OSI and CDT to continually improve ADPQ refresh to expand the pool to more vendors (up to 30) Technical Infrastructure External Network circuit between CalCloud and AWS Challenges integrating to legacy authentication service (SAF) Office Technology Environment GWO WIFI GWO network configuration (WIFI & wired vlan, port assignation) GWO direct internet link Developer laptops CWDS IT Support Team Short staffed Need admin privileges 24

25 Key Challenges (What We Can Influence) Talent Portfolio Recruiting new staff with high aptitude, modern technical skills Salary restrictions, fitting skills needed into available roles/classes Long hiring lifecycle Mapping of planned staff positions to emergent needs 25

26 Lessons Learned from Agile Insights which can be applied on other state projects Release 1 Allow enough time for testing on production data before releasing functionality. Decouple development of software from user adoption. Project-Wide There is an opportunity cost to not producing new software. Interim local solutions may have to be implemented to accommodate new program requirements. Children are at risk when programs do not have the appropriate tools. Legacy costs continue until we complete the digital services solution. Communicate to stakeholders using audience-appropriate language. County Partnership 26
