THE WAY FORWARD: RE BASELINE PROGRESS

The Way Forward” is a special short-term sub-project established by the One Washington program to assess and recommend changes to the One Washington financials baseline implementation. The changes are to ensure that appropriate processes, resources, and plans are in place to support the journey of the One Washington program.

There are four key areas of The Way Forward to re baseline the program: program goals for financial transformation, scope, deployment, and schedule.

The planning team reviewed each agency’s response and made substantial changes based on the feedback received.
