Identifying and Tackling the True Barriers to Success - Implementing eWarehouse (Lifecycle Server) in ConocoPhillips Alaska

Traditionally, successfully implementing software projects requires consideration of the technology, process and people impacts of the project. To implement an engineering data warehouse such as eWarehouse the major barriers to be overcome no longer include technology. A new project approach is needed where the technology is used as a tool to help address the real barrier to success. This presentation focuses on how the implementation of eWarehouse (Lifecycle Server) in ConocoPhillips Alaska is addressing these barriers such creating a detailed and consistent information specification, addressing data life cycle issues and changing existing business processes.
