Examples of Deliverables

Examples of major project deliverables are listed on this page.

During development of these pages a decision was made to apply the e-signature approval process to five pilot projects. Some of the project deliverables apply to all five pilots, and some are specific. At the time of this comment, some of these pilots are more complete than others, and the documentation of one of the pilots is not fully on this site. In fact, as the business plans near finalization it is likely that they will be downloaded from this wiki and maintained as traditional documents... which may or may not get posted here to complete the story.

The reader is advised to consider these as examples, but, not to make assumptions that our analysis is relevant for other circumstances or that these examples are suited to your requirements.

This site contains additional examples, background materials, and resource links. Consider taking some time to become familiar with the resources on this site before you initiate a similar e-signature project. Also please consider corresponding with the team that developed this site. We may be of some assistance and we would appreciate your participation in improving these wiki pages with lessons learned from your efforts.
