Focus Area/Rating Comments
Governance

green icon Green
Governance remained Green. Established governance structures continued to support oversight of readiness activities, data remediation efforts, and approval of the revised Go-Live date. Coordination across Caltrans, vendor teams, and oversight stakeholders remained effective, enabling timely decision-making and controlled execution of final activities.
Time Management

yellow icon Yellow
Time Management is rated Yellow due to the approved extension of the production Go-Live date to January 22, 2026. Although all modules achieved Soft Go-Live status on December 18, 2025, final data migration and system acceptance activities were deferred to allow completion of data remediation. The revised schedule has been approved and is being actively managed.
Cost & Contract Management

Cost and Contract Management remained Green. Project implementation expenditures totaled approximately $18.8 million of the $25.1 million approved budget, representing approximately 75%, and continue to align with the cost baseline. Vendor contracts remain active and sufficient to support the revised Go-Live and final acceptance timeline. No cost variances or contract issues were identified.
Scope Management

green icon Green
Scope Management remained Green. All project activities continued within the approved SPR #1 scope. The Go-Live date adjustment did not introduce scope changes, deferrals, or removals of deliverables. All Phase 3 modules remain production-ready, and final acceptance activities are proceeding within approved boundaries.
Resources

Resource Management remained Green. Staffing levels across project and vendor teams remained sufficient to support data remediation, system acceptance, and transition activities. No resource constraints or skill gaps were observed.
Quality

green icon Green
Quality Management remained Green.
