Software Development

  • Budget Update
  • Tableau - Requests are more involved and time consuming.
  • SELV v2 Maintenance / Updates budget is approximately $2K / Month
  • October spend approximately $3K due to working through backlog
  • Mike will provide estimates to allow team to make investment decisions.  Team recognizes trade-offs between creating reports that are reusable and extracting data for one time analysis.
  Tablet Update
  • National roll-out decision is based on results from observations and results of current pilot.  Tatenda and Vidya will write-up results and recommendation.  Will need to project plan this to understand budget implications for HSG and ISG.
  • Excel / Word on tablets - Would like this capability to enable note taking.  Microsoft apps don't run on Android tablets, but there is a third party tool available.  Mike can test when Sarah gets back with the tablet.
  • Tablet Camera - Camera not enabled on one tablet - need password.
