Happy New Year from the Managerial Reporting Project Team!

We are off and running on a busy 2015! The MRP team continues to support UFM Reporting and is already working on the strategic planning phase of the Decision Support System portion of the project. Additionally, the Orange Data and Process Improvement Teams continue to build on the great work they achieved during the fall.


The MRP team is also happy to introduce Forrest Swope, the new Data Stewardship Lead. In his role, Forrest will manage the project’s complex current-state business process mapping and assessment for university-wide data stewardship. His responsibilities include improving the overall management of the availability, usability and integrity of decision support information across grounds.

Forrest comes to UVa from Silverchair, where he was the Senior Director for Platform Development. He has lived in Charlottesville for 30 years, and is a UVa alum. Forrest played in a band in the ‘90s and even opened for Phish and Dave Matthews. He and his wife Caroline have two teenage daughters, two cats and a dog.
