 +====== ODM ======
  
 +
 +
 +===== Current Situation =====
 +
 +ODM stands for Operational Data Management.  At NR this breaks down into a number of key areas for Infrastructure Maintenance:
 +
 +  * Data management for various safety and hazard registers (see [[specifics]] for more details.
 +  * A level of image management (this is a future requirement) 
 +
 +Like Image management, ODM is done very much on an ad-hoc basis, often with the various registers held in a substantial number of MS Access databases floating around the company.  
 +
 +Some of the current issues around ODM are:
 +
 +  - Substantial distributed copies of data held in a number of different formats (ie. MS Access)
 +  - Localisation of data storage vs. distribution to other Areas (see [[#org chart]] below for info)
 +  - Validity / currency of data held (i.e. PB crash had out of date diagrams)
 +  - Data Ownership
 +  - Inconsistent metadata between similar applications
 +
 +
 +
 +===== Objectives =====
 +
 +//**TBC**//
 +
 +===== Informal Requirements =====
 +
 +The ODM solution needs to be able to provide the following:
 +
 +  * Version management and control of all registers and data.
 +  * Internal access by desktop, laptop and mobile device
 +  * External access in the future (?access methods, security?)
 +
 +and will need to take account of:
 +
 +  * Current CMS (aka CCMS) - Documentum.
 +  * Current ODM tool - APEXs (formerly Oracle HTML DB)
 +    * In use for at least one of the primary registers.
 +  * Current levels of mobile deployment (limited to Supervisory level trackside at the mo)
 +  * Multiple delivery methods (i.e. network, MMS / SMS)
 +
 +and must be:
 +
 +  * Easier and more efficient for the current workforce to use than the current tools in use.
 +
 +===== Quick Questions & Thoughts =====
 +
 +====== Deliverables ======
 +
 +//**TBC**// but may include:
 +
 +  * Imaging Roadmap
 +  * Infrastructure platform definition
 +  * Personnel skills matrix and training requirements
 +
 +====== Infrastructure Maintenance Structure ======
 + 
 +This section will grow as more details are available.
