Jeff Kantor "All FY16+ column changes (with first-level estimate of resources required) to GPDF due 20150331." The estimate of resources required is not part of the LDM-240. Do you need extra information on this?
Jeff Kantor
Effort estimation is not strictly a part of LDM-240, but you should make changes to the columns with some idea of what you may be doing to the resources required to implement the plan. If, for example, you move a large segment of work earlier or later, you should probably point this out.
In any case, we will do a more formal evaluation of that AFTER the initial proposed column changes, which should not be considered final until the effort impact is analyzed. This will be done by examining the milestones and creating "meta-epics" which the T/CAMs will estimate.
