The team will be responsible for implementing enhancements to the current system to support new requirements that have emerged since the original [***] was developed. The [***] functionality enhances the current system functionality in the areas depicted in Table 1. [***] - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The [***] system implementation will involve some up-front analysis and requirements review work followed by the implementation of the identified functionality. However, unlike a ground-up integration project, and because the current production [***] serves as the basis for the development of this phase of enhancements, the [***]. Under the plan recommended in this SOW, the [***] system enhancements will be delivered in stages, with the most important functionality delivered first. This staged implementation model was successful during the [***] deployment cycle. Figure 1 provides a conceptual model for the staged delivery approach. Description of Project Tasking - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Because the most important functionality is delivered first, the [***] users' critical needs can be met sooner. Each staged delivery presents tangible evidence of the project's progress and gives the end-user a chance to review the interim products and provide feedback to the project team prior to the delivery of the final system. This methodology allows a series of adjustments to be made to the system in a controlled fashion, with user input, rather than waiting to the end of the project to make a massive amount of change. In a series of staged deliveries, the project progresses along a path that includes the steps described in the rest of this section .

The [***] staff has been exposed to the [***]; therefore, a fast-track approach for requirements review can be utilized by building upon the most desirable functions from the system and developing new functionality where required. Although much of the functionality that has been implemented during the [***] effort was defined during the [***] design task, many of the requirements have changed over time. However, rather than conducting a lengthy requirements review and workflow definition process, this task will be conducted as an on-going iterative process.

Changes to existing requirements and workflows need to be discovered and documented so they can be implemented in this phase of the [***]. The focus of this work will be to satisfy as many requirements as possible and to [***]. In addition, Predictive Systems' consultants will review current procedures (documented or not) and create updated documentation that reflects the current and planned state of the operational environment. [***]. Define Requirements for the [***] - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Prior to development commencing on new [***] functions, Predictive Systems' consultants will collect and document requirements, review the requirements with the end-users, and develop a design and project plan to be reviewed with Qwest prior to getting approval to move forward with the development process. For the most part, this project will be executed [***]. However, in some cases, the requirements need to be defined prior to estimating resources and timelines. These areas include: o [***] o [***] o [***] Part of the deliverables of the requirements definition phase is an estimate of the resources, cost and schedule required to implement the desired functionality.
