• The whole process is getting placed under Michaels Manager.

• His manager is wanting to make sure everything is built out and there are certain mechanisms in place to be able to track specific dashboards that are set up workflows for how that looks both in start content and how it would look on certain mobile applications.

Reason of request

• From RTS station command model trying to get more of a predictive scale. Current system in palace has a couple different 3rd party tools.

• The team needs to either combine together or holistically create a singular mechanism so their team can pull RTS on the one platform as well as it being a predictive model.

• Need someone to build the framework out and make sure the capabilities are in line w/ requirements
