At this stage, the person who was hired earlier and was leading the BETA focal team through
the development phase left BETA for another job. This particular development compelled
BETA to restore the old structure of the focal team of BETA. Now the Head of the Department
of Computer Sciences was assigned the role of team lead by the client organization.
The project at this stage required transferring the existing data from the old system to the
new system, and new data entry as well as testing the real-time application behavior. The
developers from ALPHA provided scripts to convert data from the old system based on SQL
server to the new system. However, according to BETA, the scripts did not work as per requirements
which had to be modified time and again. BETA formed another team referred to
as ???Testing Analysis Team???, to test the portal, and the team members were provided training
by ALPHA. Moreover a person was selected from each faculty as master trainer, who was
entrusted the task to further train the end users within his faculty. This task took another six
months of time and further delayed the successful implementation.
The project started in September, 2002, with the planned completion date of December, 2003.
