• “One on One” discussions with newly elected/appointed participants

 

· (1:40) Additional information on technical analysis

• Process to identify technical necessary to support a given business function
• Steve’s naïve technology assumptions…
• Compared to the actual results of the technical analysis
• Infrastructure (broadly defined)
• Applications may actually be somewhat different
• Appear to allow sequencing, but…
• “Agency communities” have been confirmed (more later)

 

· (1:55) That living room conversation with your insurance agent

• As with insurance, DR planning is largely risk mitigation
• Said another way – easier to scale plans down, than to scale up
• Another reality – we do NOT have unlimited human, financial resources

 

· (2:10) Continued evolution, or do we need a bit of a “big bang”?

• Nebraska is in a better place today that we were 18 months ago
• Large scale computing data
• Portable communications system
• Current risk may still be considered high…too high?

 

· (2:35) Next steps

• Meetings to better understand agency communities of shared data
• Meetings to better understand enterprise vs. agency-specific technology dependencies
• Exercise planning
• Next version – the “Windows Vista” of our efforts

 

· (3:00) Adjourn
