070704 -
070705 - Denis initially feels Welch proposed level of effort per ref SDS 4

0714 - 1213 called Denis back
0715 -
071501 - What are results of Denis' discussions on Welch scope at ref SDS 1
071502 - 3457, and hours per ref SDS 3 0001?
071503 -
071504 -     Denis said he and Kevin are working on this now.
071505 -
071506 -     They feel the hours for Communication Metrics exceed their fee
071507 -     structure, which is about 14% for all of their work.  We recalled
071508 -     my inquiry about his budget targets for Communication Metrics, and
071509 -     the decision that for the needs of the work should drive the
071510 -     budget, ref SDS 1 0990.  I explained the need for adequate
071511 -     communication support arising from the high risk of managing his
071512 -     project in a setting of mulitple projects in a conjested area,
071513 -     compounded by political interests which impede sound management
071514 -     practice, per ref SDS 1 1360.
071515 -
071516 -     Denis said that the budgeted hours even at $75 per hour is over
071517 -     $400K, which, though spreadout over 3 years, is beyond the project
071518 -     budget.
071519 -
071520 -     Denis and Kevin plan to evaluate the options for reducing the
071521 -     Communication Metrics effort by 33% to 50% discussed under "Risk
071522 -     Management" at ref SDS 3 line 344.  Denis mentioned that KH may be
071523 -     able to provide some of the support with internal forces in order
071524 -     to reduce the Welch scope.  This reflects Denis original plan to
071525 -     budget according to the needs of the assignment,
071526 -     ref SDS 1 line
071527 -     294.
071528 -
071529 -
071530 - Denis will call back toward the end of the day to report their
071531 - findings.
