2009 is well underway, and so is progress on CHRIS! Current
efforts of the many members of the CHRIS design and implementation
team are focused on finalizing design plans and actually
"constructing" the new programming needed to implement the
new system. In order to ensure we "go-live" with a
system that provides significant and useful functionality on day
one, we have moved the intended "go-live" date to the
Third Quarter of 2009. This additional time will help ensure
the customary "bumps" along the road associated with a
project of this complexity are minimized, while also affording our
many current payroll, personnel, and occupational safety users
important training opportunities prior to getting started.
