With the approval of Executive Sponsor Jim Davis (SVP/COO), the UT Works Program recently released an updated Phase 1 Timeline. The updated timeline includes input from the leadership of units involved in the program and endorses the shared goal for campus to begin using UT Works in the Fall of 2024. To meet this goal, the program will adopt methodologies and practices that prioritize the timeline.

This spring saw the kick-off of work on the Capital Planning and Project Management (CPPM) module. The first round of design sessions began in April and will run until late June.

The UT Works Program passed an important milestone when the Operations & Maintenance (O&M) Design Sessions concluded at the end of March.

The UT Works Program recently released a detailed timeline for the implementation of modules included in Phase 1.

Completed in December, the first round of Operations and Maintenance (O&M) design sessions produced the first recommendation documents for review and validation by representatives in the participating units. Design sessions provide a forum for exchanging ideas and best practices as participants work together to determine how the UT Works program will improve business processes by leveraging the functionality of the technical system.

The Design Phase of the UT Works program is kicking off in November with preliminary design sessions with “The Core Design Team,” representatives from Facilities Planning and Management (FPM), Enterprise Business IT Solutions (eBITS), Utilities and Energy Management (UEM), Technology Resources (TRecs), and Business Financial Services (BFS). The Core Design Team will be responsible for making configuration and process decisions with the goal of a “one business process for one business need,” a core tenant of the UT Works program. The Core Design Team was selected by the UT Program Oversight Committee.
