Documentation Location Information/Access

The documentation is stored in a variety of formats on a central server in the Information Technology Division. At this time, access to the server is limited to project team members. A majority of the information is stored using Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, and Microsoft Project. Additionally, key information is stored in KnowledgeWare's Planning Workstation computer aided systems engineering tool. This tool is used to manage the relationships between the various pieces of information and for analysis.

The project team plans to provide access to the information on the World Wide Web.
