What has happened? The Project Drive team is currently preparing for User Acceptance Testing (UAT), a series of tests completed by end users of the new system to ensure that it works as designed and validates their day-to-day business activities. This round of testing will also guide the project team in addressing any system defects. The Project Drive team and selected participants will conduct UAT in October, as Familiarization Sessions鈥攚hich
introduce the new technology and processes鈥攁re well underway.

End user enablement is a critical factor in our employees' ability to thrive in our new cloud environment. Along with Familiarization Sessions, Train the Trainer Sessions will also be available soon to ensure trainers and ambassadors have a deep understanding of the topics they will be teaching.

In addition, project teammates are also conducting Parallel Payroll Testing within the
new system and in unison with our legacy system to identify any defects and resolve
them before going live. The objective of these tests is to achieve identical employee pay
calculations between the legacy and new Oracle system.

This month's key accomplishments: 

• Validating all the necessary data in preparation for UAT
• Built the Parallel Payroll 1 Test Environment

What鈥檚 next? Our project team is prioritizing training to enhance End-User Enablement and preparing UAT testers with essential learning. We鈥檙e also initiating discussions to support our Cutover Plan Checklist. A cutover plan aims to outline the steps to transition from an old system to a new one, detailing tasks, timelines, resources, and risk management. 

What has happened?  The Project Drive team took the lead role in testing whether business processes were functioning as designed across Oracle modules. The team executed test scripts of evreyday transactions across several modules and captured defects in Jira (project management tool used on Project Drive) to be reviewed, confirmed, prioritied, and resolved. This progress has enabled the team to work on building an enviornment that is ready for User Acceptance Testing (UAT), a series of testing sessions from the end-user perspective to ensure the system works as expected.

This month's key accomplishments: 

• Completed the End-to-End (E2E) Testing project phase
• Completed 95% of total data conversion within prototype
• Showcased the Oracle modules completed during E2E: Recruiting, Goal Management, Onboarding, Performance Management, and Learning

What鈥檚 next? The project team is finalizing change impacts which contributes to our End-User Enablement while also preparing for UAT. Once the End-User Enablement plan is approved by leadership, we'll begin prioritizing training needs. UAT allows for verification of the cloud application working as intended for the system end users with a projected 100% data integration. 

What has happened?  The Project Drive team has recently kicked off End-to-End (E2E) testing! This series of tests determines whether business processes are functioning as designed, from the start of a transaction to its completion, across system modules. E2E Testing takes the initial step of empowering 国产短视频employees by first preparing and equipping the 国产短视频project teams to take the primary role during testing, with Oracle's support. 

Look out for a standalone E2E testing announcement with full need-to-know details and next steps! 

This month's key accomplishments: 

• Built out cloud solution prototype for E2E testing
• Built out prototype (at the end of Process Playback 2) to show the Key Data Structure redesign to 国产短视频leadershipCompleted 75% of total data conversion within this prototype
• Completed configuration of E2E test scripts 

What鈥檚 next? The project team is finalizing change impacts which contributes to our End-User Enablement and continuing E2E testing, which is scheduled to run through August. After this testing is completed, we'll begin preparing for User Acceptance Testing (UAT). UAT allows for verification of the cloud application working as intended for the system end users with a projected 100% data integration. 

What has happened? The Project Drive team is currently wrapping final preparations for End-to-End (E2E) testing, which kicks off in July. These preparations involve building out Prototype 3 (P3) and its configurations, data conversions, integrations and reports. A friendly reminder: E2E testing covers business processes from start to finish within our recently completed P2, across different Oracle Cloud HCM system modules (e.g., Recruiting, Compensation etc.) as we would complete them in our day-to-day work. 

This month's key accomplishments: 

• Completed and gained Executive Leadership Team (ELT) approval of all Process Playback 2 (PP2) activities
• Prepared for End-to-End (E2E) testing by starting the build of our third prototype (P3) of the new system

This testing cycle ensures the new business processes are functioning as designed and that data integrity is preserved between modules. Look out for a standalone E2E testing announcement with more details as we near the start date.

What has happened? The Project Drive team is assessing Key Design Decisions (KDD) and Configuration Workbooks (CWB) at a steady pace, as almost 600 KDD have been accepted by the Executive Leadership Team (ELT). That's another 400 KDD from where we stood last month! Remember, the completed KDD and CWB will inform us of the design of our new system and how processes will take place within that system.

Since March, 'tiger teams' made up of 国产短视频and Oracle Consulting Services (OCS) project
sponsors, solution architects, functional workstream leads, and the technical team have been meeting frequently to assess gaps between the future state design and the current documented design. This cross-functional meeting approach helps remove silos and ensures all participants align on KDD. Embracing the tough conversations, course correcting, and removing obstacles is more than a guiding principle of Project Drive鈥攊t is how we are moving efficiently as one united team to complete Prototype 2 (P2) of our Oracle Cloud HCM system!

What has happened? To ensure our HR transformation is fully aligned with USF's HR strategic vision, an essential step in our process involves the Project Drive team conducting a Preliminary Design Review. 

This critical assessment, designed to refine our strategy and ensure alignment, requires approval from the executive leadership team (ELT). With their green light, we will be poised to complete Phase Process Playback 2 (PP2) of the system development and transition smoothly into the End-to-End (E2E) Testing phase. This intentional review phase allows us to adjust and move forward with greater precision and alignment.

What is E2E? E2E Testing covers all business processes from start to finish within Prototype 2 as they would transact in our day-to-day work鈥攅nsuring they are functioning as designed and that data integrity is preserved between system modules. This activity was formerly known as System Integration Testing (SIT) but going forward we are referring to it as E2E Testing, since we are determining how business processes within modules affect other modules, rather than testing the integration builds themselves.

What鈥檚 next? As the project team prepares for the Preliminary Design Review, they are also conducting the activities below as we near the end of Process Playback 2 (PP2):

• Discussing final PP2 functional data validation review and approval
• Holding sessions to cover E2E test script creation
• Beginning the initial technica lreview of Oracle Guided Learning (OGL) guides
• Holding discussions to further understand payroll processes

What has happened? The project team鈥檚 progress continues through Process Playback 2 (PP2) activities, specifically on integrations, reporting, and workflow builds. Oracle and 国产短视频teammates are holding joint sessions to make final design decisions and address any pending risks across Wave 1 modules.  

What is PP2? PP2 provides an expanded look at the system design in Oracle Cloud HCM and serves as an important progress check before going live by allowing the team to see the feedback from earlier Process Playback 1 (PP1) activities integrated into our solution.

What鈥檚 next? Once PP2 concludes, we will move into System Integration Testing (SIT). SIT is the phase of our cloud journey where the project team will verify that all modules within the prototype system design of our Oracle Cloud HCM solution are truly integrated and function properly with systems at USF. Before we move into SIT, we must complete ongoing integration and workflow builds.
