This may be worth a look, is the AFPAA corporate plan for 2005/6 & 2009/10. Mentions the Top 2 risks and Mitigating Actions. Also shows the people responsible for JPA.

Risk
Inability to retain the right skills and
numbers of personnel to ensure that the
JPA programme and Agency
Transformation succeeds.
The Agency's key outputs are the
implementation of JPA and current
services and there is a risk that pressures
on one will cause the other to fail.
Mitigation Activities include:
Training and development, and recruitment and
retention strategies.
Detailed manpower plans.
A joint Human Resource Strategy and Plan ·
Development of 'The AFPAA Way'
A freeze on all but unavoidable change to create
stability.
Regular monitoring of resource requirements across
the Agency.
Changes to the Agency's structure to reflect the
implementation of JPA.
Prioritisation of resources to respond to emerging
difficulties

I would be interested to know if the Director JPA and JPA programme director are still in thier jobs, or been promoted for a successful implemenmtation of JPA from 20 Mar to 1 Apr, before it was properly live, although died pretty quickly. So at least the names of the Directors are now known. It appears that if the 2 main risks were known and nothing was done to properly resolve the issues and test the system before going live, then these individuals and the Chief Executive of AFPAA should be sorted out. If however, these individuals were pressurised to bring the system into service by those above then they should be named and shamed. Did the directors know of the problems and warn the higher authorities of the risks, so many questions to be asked. At least the directors should be up front and explain themselves and the processes and the politics involved in this fiasco.
Quote from the plan "A programme of testing will take place including a Pilot exercise before JPA IT
systems are allowed to "go live"."Unquote
I have been reading most of this document now and I really can't believe how much complete and utter Bulls**t is in this. Am getting so cheesed off with it now so am going to stop now before I explode and smash my computer.
DCDS(Pers) and AFPAA totally irresponsible!!!
