Web Application Turnover Process


If you are developing or making major revisions to a Web application that will be managed by Administrative Information Services, you must follow the steps identified below. The completion of this process will ensure the successful turnover and ongoing management of your application.

To clear form fields when doing multiple forms, open a new browser window for each new form.

Step 1 – Review the AIS Production Web Application Standards document.

Step 2 – Submit a Preliminary Web Application / Server Questionnaire.

Currently, all web application forms need to be printed, completed and submitted to Carl Seybold (814-863-6350), Shields Building. Future versions of the forms will be interactive.

Step 3 – Attend Preliminary Web Application Meeting.
 
Prior to starting application development, contact Carl Seybold to schedule your first meeting with AIS personnel. In this meeting, you will discuss the architectural design, the technical requirements of your application, timeframes for your work and review potential issues in Appendix G. A tentative production target date will be established in Step 4.

Step 4 – Attend Web Application Planning Meeting.
 
Once application development has begun and you have an idea of how long the programming may take, contact Carl Seybold to schedule your second meeting with AIS personnel. This meeting will be to discuss any new requirements and establish a tentative production target date. This meeting must take place at least 90 days before final production. Following this meeting, Infrastructure personnel will start the AIS Infrastructure Checklist in Appendix D.

Step 5 – Complete the Web Application Turnover Checklist prior to Production planning meeting.

Step 6 – Attend Web Application Production Planning Meeting.
 
Contact Carl Seybold to schedule your production planning meeting with AIS personnel. This meeting must take place at least 30 days prior to tentative target production date.

In this meeting, you will review the Web Application Turnover Checklist, demonstrate the final application to AIS personnel and discuss application support and management issues. Infrastructure will in turn describe where they are in completing the AIS Infrastructure Checklist. If no problems are identified in this meeting, a final production target date will be established.

Step 7 – Receive sign-off from AIS Directors and the Consulting and Support Services manager.
 
In order to confirm that all steps have been completed to move this application into production, these Directors and managers must sign the Web Application Turnover Checklist.
