Boldly into the unknown!
It started months ago, the preparation for the go live of the ATLAS project, recently renamed the ATLAST project. This is a fully integrated system using SAP software, the resource it has consumed has been phenomenal. It will be interesting to see how it all goes, the people involved in the project are now really having come through with goods now as we get closer to the live date. I’m pretty sure that all will be well, but the next few days could be interesting. I will post updates on this on a fairly regular basis, these I hope will be objective. However as one of my jobs has now been delayed for some time and the resource will have to be rescheduled for several other jobs as a result, I’m not so sure that I’m best pleased with this because as it’s the main holiday period I’ve got a feeling that much of the work may come my way.

If the project goes well, I’ll be impressed – not a lot but I will. I think that the way forward will be interesting, I’m fully expecting this contract to come to an end in the next six months or so, it will be sad to leave after two contracts that have run for so long. But I’ll be leaving with the full knowledge that the systems will be good to take them forward for the next 5 or more years.
