About the Project

The project has been set up to identify and implement a new portal software for the University.

MUSE is currently running on obsolete technology and users find it to be a barrier rather than an enabler, while our developers find it difficult to roll out new services using the back-end software.

This project has the following aims:-

  • To determine the current requirements for access to services.
  • to conduct an investigation into available solutions which meet the criteria
  • to recommend a technical solution
  • To implement the solution

Timescales

Deliverable From To
Phase 1 Development 18th April 2013 31st July 2013
Phase 2 Development 15th July 2013 31st October 2013
Phase 3 Development 1st November 2013

31st January 2014

Roll out of each phase will be shortly after development phase, but times to cause the minimum disruption to University business.
