'This was due to a shortage of key resources in GIS, made worse by other demands from X, and to a degree by the partial bar on staff recruitment at the time.X056A page 004.04 Colin Document 16/08/94The problem has been made harder to resolve by a lack of clarity, simplicity and continuity in the management responsibilities for X'S IT, in X and GIS, and by a number of changes in business priorities.
This means that GIS project management has been stretched by the time spent on other X work, to the point where the attention paid to the Multinational system has been limited for most of the past year.
During most of the development on version two there was no team leader - the original candidate arrived late and went to Marine.
GIS management did not communicate the resourcing difficulties - and the possible impact on Multinational - sufficiently strongly to the IT Steering Committee, and was unable to resolve the problem quickly internally.
This left the development team without adequate technical and managerial control most of the time. It has left GIS unable to take a full role in resolving the issues which are still holding up the full use of the Multinational system.'
