10 days is a long time.

Industry would not allow this to happen so why do the MOD?

Does that mean PSF will be closed for 10 days for 'training'?

Surely PSF will operate some sort of enhanced service to compensate for the JPA downtime? Will they be available out of hours to cover shift workers?

 

[MattBombHead]

At my unit, PDF are using the time to go from 'devolved' to 'centralised'... What could possibly go wrong...?

 

[lawman]

Their business continuity plan should be well tested... or it could be a big cluster f. You decide..

I think we can all take a good guess at the answer there...

If there was a BC plan, people would already know it. The fact that it hasn't been mentioned answers that question.

Welcome to the public sector.

I can just envisage 100,000+ personnel across all services recieving no pay at the end of August. You heard it here first guys.

Devolved? One reason why the secret helicopter base in Hampshire was so carp for those in psf.

 

[ady eflog]

Carp in PSF! No wonder the fluckers never answer the phone.........

JPA is a fine and dandy system which has won awards and everything. Well, at least according to this

You can always contact the chappie called Czapp(ie) who invites you to contact him for further information.

or it would if the MOD had bought the full version and not the lowest model with additional bolt ons, rather like trying to make a vw polo perform and look like a ferrari.

 

[Downsizer]

I've never really had a problem with it to be honest.

Have done ...

If JPA is so good why does it need to go offline to users for 10 days for maintenance purposes?

I won't hold my breath waiting for a reply.

 

[Stevienics]

Bearing in mind there is a license cost per user month for this system, and there are a lot of users, one would hope this down-time adjustment has been taken care of by MoD invoicing?

Ha Ha Ha Ha ha............ sorry.
