Operations

• Finance continues to advance initial discovery work with its first four working groups (Supply Chain, Disbursements, Payroll and Asset Management) finalizing their charters and initial timelines. The next wave of working groups (Policy, Process and Training, Financial Analysis and Information Systems) are scheduled to launch in June. Change management efforts have been imbedded in monthly joint operation lead meetings to support the team and provide leaders with tools to guide their individual teams through the transition.
• Administration & Operations (A&O) remains focused on key priorities, including public safety and parking reciprocity. Within public safety, four discovery groups, which include accreditation, access & technology, contracts, and DPS dispatch, have developed their templates and begun capturing current state data. This work will inform current state presentations targeted for completion by the end of July. The parking reciprocity sprint also launched in May, with the goal of finalizing recommendations by the end of June to enable implementation ahead of the fall semester.
