Murray, I'm in charge of the Vendor Contract Compliance group that manages the relationship between vendors and EES/EWS in the Operations group. Please see my response to your questions below.

Murray,

Don't know if Evan got with you are nit, but the CSC responsibilities transferred to my group. Bob Gresch can answer all questions for you. Additionally, I'd be happy to chat with you on any suggestions or any insights you have. Beth, Evan and I will be there next week, so we have a great opportunity.

Even,

Who do I need to contact to see a copy of the current Enron to CSC project request log.
The current project log for CSC projects is on the CSC/EES information exchange web site at this url - <http://csc-enronix/chg_req/IT_Projects.pdf<
Do we have a listing which contains the following information:

Request description

Requestor

Date of request

Quantifiable justification for request

Cost to Enron for CSC to do the request

Enron's priority of request

Enron's preferred date of completion

CSC targeted date of completion.

CSC current status (% complete)
Most of the above information is contained in the report referenced up above. The remaining information may be found in the actual request itself, which is maintained, along with all associated correspondence, amendments, approvals, etc., in a soft library my group manages on the J: drive.
Is there a formal reporting process of these requests and is there a group who manages the priorities to make sure they are in-line with the current business needs.


My group manages the request process and ensures adherence to the Work Request Guidelines. Priorities for projects are determined based on the requested delivery date. If a new request has a delivery date that causes problems with the completion of other existing projects, then the owners of the conflicting requests are contacted to rearrange project completion dates and reset expectations. Additionally, we hold a monthly Executive Project Status review where all requestors can conference in and discuss issues related to their projects.
Can you also tell me if CSC is off on their cost estimate for doing a project does Enron get billed actual project cost or just estimated costs
We are billed actuals, however there is an agreement that we will only pay overruns up to 15% of the project cost (almost all projects are IT in nature and we feel this is a fair margin in estimation error). My group is responsible for validating charges on the invoice, and we monitor the charged project costs. We will negotiate overruns on a project-by-project basis as they occur. We also perform a function up front of cost haggling on estimates if requested, or if we note something unusual.
Any information you can provide related to this request would be appreciated.

Thanks - MO
