Recommendations

Designate a specific project manager for Construction Inspection Program Information Management System (CIPIMS) as required by the Project Management Methodology (PMM).

Develop and maintain project artifacts for CIPIMS as required in the PMM.

Determine what systems, structures and components assembled or manufactured off-site need to be inspected prior to arrival at the construction site in support of the ITAAC closure process.

Develop a formal vendor inspection coordination strategy to ensure appropriate inspections of modular systems, structures, and components assembled or manufactured off-site.

Develop a plan to correct the existing communication and coordination problems between headquarters and Region II that resulted from a lack of a change management process for ITAAC-related issues.
