You can also reach the milestones through the following: ALMA Project Workspaces for IPTs 10 Management Budget, Milestones, and Planning Milestone Planning Later this week, I will incorporate the various recent updates, and post these to ALMA EDM in the same location. For a few IPTs, the milestones status is coming from the detailed schedules being developed and statused as part of the ALMA PMCS; for others, the milestones remain based on the older milestone-only system which the PMCS will replace.

Presentations will be based largely on the June-July monthly report but will probably include progress through mid-August. Dr. Lo will be giving an overview and a summary and presentation of project wide changes such as "schedule and cost rebaselining", or equivalently an updating of the project plan. It will be a powerpoint presentation, however, at this time the format is undecided. On Monday, a decision will be made as to the format of these slides. Each IPT lead will be asked to prepare 3 .ppt slides summarizing their bimonthly report contribution but updated to mid-August. Clearly you will have to highlight the essential points. Again, the slides have to convey the actual versus planned status in the relevant areas, AND recovery plans. The first draft of these three slides will be due by the end of next week, so that there is one more week for iterations. This email is just a "heads-up" to make you aware that this will be happening next week. On Monday afternoon you will be receiving the template for this presentation. Please start thinking about what you would like to present on your slides and be sure to allow time in your schedule next week to make this a top priority item. More details to follow on Monday! Have a great weekend!

Message-ID: Dear NA IPT leads, I understand that many of you have been going through your schedule and budget as part of the PMCS implementation process and working on new work elements. I would like to remind you to send the new work elements to Janet Bauer so that I can review them as part of our effort to review the NA ALMA team's current plan and how to update the plan. This exercise has to be done pro-actively by the project manager with all of you to make sure the inter-IPT dependencies are taken care of, and eventually with the JAO and our European colleagues. Therefore, it is not an independent IPT exercise of just passing along new work elements to the PMCS system. When you have even a draft revision of your work elements, you should submit them to the Project Office and we should start discussing them within the NA ALMA Project. The first discussion will take place during the rescheduled NA DH Teleconference, this Friday, 3rd September beginning at 10:30 am ET, 14:30 UTC. Cheers, KYL Fred K. Y.
