National Teams public project management tracking
Warning In Progress
Would it be possible for all of the new teams within the national council to track their current projects on an internal project management tracking website? The national webmaster, at one point, listed projects that were being worked on but the list has gone out of date. This project management website should be a bit more professional and dynamic to allow for easy updates.

The website would be able to provide accurate and regularly updated information on when to expect a new enhancement to be released so that we, at the local council, can prime the pumps and make strategic decisions about enhancements / changes before these changes are sent out. If the list of topics is made public then the professional scouting community would be able to e-mail, or maybe through the website, provide input on the topics being discussed. Projects could be put up on the site when the team / group is ready to make the concept public and open the concept for discussion and input and a timeframe for completion has been established.

Knowing what is being worked on allows the talent of a national professional staff to have input on the programs, allows councils to be proactive in planning for the future and allows us all to know what direction we are headed in.

It is our desire to have at least a link on MyBSA to our weekly status report to show anyone who has an interest the status of our projects.  It will include the requested projects list and how they are prioritized.  As of today I don’t know when we’ll have that up.  Hopefully before the end of the first quarter of 2009.

In case a stand alone website could not be created. National can look into partnering with Base camp http://www.basecamphq.com/. They provide this service at a month subscription fee.
