OLD BUSINESS  
Mr. McPhearson discussed the extension of the HR/Payroll implementation of the Dayforce  
system. He said the implementation team decided that additional time is necessary to complete  
the implementation with the addition of 45 Regional Office of Education employees that were  
not part of the original scope. He said the team also decided to take more time for user  
acceptance testing and training. He said instead of going live July 1, they are confident they will  
be able to go live on October 1. He said due to the payroll process, we have to go by quarterly  
cycles, which is why it is October 1 and not sooner.  
9.  
NEW BUSINESS  
Member Rutledge welcomed Deputy CIO Richard Burnson and asked that he provide a scope of  
his work to the committee. Mr. Burnson said within the IT organization, he reports directly to  
Mr. McPhearson and that the Network, Operations, and Telecom teams report directly to him.  
He said he will also oversee day-to-day operations. Mr. McPhearson said we are making some  
adjustments to fit Mr. Burnson's skill set and experience to the role. He said 60-70% of his time  
will be spent on daily operations, though he will oversee the budget and do work on the strategic  
side as well.

ADJOURNMENT  
With no further business, the meeting was adjourned.
