[IBL] MIS Template?

[rlennon]

I actually uploaded the EDG MIS report in excel. I used excel as it could help keep track of usage percentage. 

If anyone finds issues with my MIS please let me know. Thanks

Hi Noel and all - I was the one who floated it.  Although I would still love simpler MIS, I sensed an understandable range of opinion of what was "simpler" and whether "simpler" was better.  Although I planned on forging ahead and providing something for everyone's review, I found a single year of IBL experience and time constraints were not a great combo to reimagine MIS.
 
I did take a pretty mediocre shot at making an Excel version of MIS.  Frankly, I am going to jettison it for this year and just go with the standard wall of text MS Word approach.  But since you asked, and since I know it's not good so no feelings will be hurt, I've attached it in its current "form" with some placeholder content.  Basically, I wanted to create an index (see the first tab) that would allow owners to determine in one look if more specific instructions were necessary to consult.  I would have better organized the index and add hyperlinks so that you could double-click on a cell and would be taken directly to the relevant tab.  Would also organize in decision tree order (like many of you do - PR first, then PH, then .....).   Then would make the more specific instructions as lean and clean as possible.
 
It has a long ways to go to be "simpler" and better, and I'm not sure it would ever get there.  But I might keep trying to poke around with it in the future.  Unfortunately for now, no better mousetrap in Minnesota.
 
Thanks all.
 
- David

There was discussion a couple of months ago about creating a simpler version of the MIS that we'd all use.  Anything happen with that?

Thanks,
