1) there is a systems maturity issue that is responsible for the inability of staff to improve these systems.  A CS role is required.

2) poor user experience (UX) is the single complaint that supports the current  " . . . not another spreadsheet!" cultural.  I have provided a breakthrough solution, ActiveX object embedded spreadsheets that look and feel like mature, full screen multi-color database forms, validate their inputs, navigate through records and automatically send their data to any drive location.

3) Database / Data Mangement practices and capability are insufficient to get to the next level.  To understand and build strategies upon data collections and models based on the possible outputs is a widespread deficit.  Folks cannot "see" the many ways in which these systems can help.  Immersing some CS expertise in PHAC will organically change this limitation as that understanding  begins to take hold in the community.

I also completed a Reports data model study building on existing inventory work generated by one the Team’s experiments to Lean concepts and methods. This work allowed me to move quickly along the lines of suggestion included in the work towards an integrated, local data repository.  (Report Modeling2.ppt)

I created a presentation extoling the virtues of “decoupling” the data gathering function from the reporting function.  The idea needed to be combined with other solutions in order to meet the local need.  But, it seemed like a move in the right direction with respect to improving the culture.

I began a search for a repository capable of providing the data integrity required by the Performance Measurement System.  I met with the Data Hub team to gather more information about their goals, standards and views on Protected “B” storage issues and future solutions.  They could not provide much information about the facilities which would be in place in the future I was attempting to move towards in any of our solution designs.
