f Roadmap — Feasibility Study Ref: PA/PLA/025

1 Management Summary

This document outlines the Terms of Reference for the Post Office / Fujitsu Services IT
Roadmap Feasibility Study project approved at the Post Office Executive meeting on 29"
March. The IT Roadmap “Next Generation” concept was judged, at that point, to be
sufficiently compelling to proceed to a full feasibility assessment and the development of a
business case.

The project is in two phases: the Full Feasibility Stage (covering the period up to early
September 2004), and the Heads of Agreement, covering the period from early September
2004 to 30" September 2004.

This project will be resourced and implemented jointly by Post Office and Fujitsu.

The project is required to ensure that there is a business case for Post Office and Fujitsu to
migrate to a new Business / Systems model (described as the “Next Generation”) ensuring
that the solution can withstand market scrutiny and provide a win / win for both
organisations.

This will represent the first formal stage in a longer programme of work, leading to the
implementation of the “Next Generation” solution and its associated business changes.

The success criteria for the Feasibility Study will be jointly agreed, however it must be
recognised that at certain subsequent stages either organisation may decline to move
forward if its key goals can no longer be met.

The document describes:
e The project objectives
© The programme structure
e The project strands and deliverables
e The organisational structure
e The project plan (and responsibilities)
e The programme resources
It should be noted that this document will be updated by Post Office and Fujitsu as details

of actual deliverables and checkpoints are agreed by the joint project team. As such this
will provide an audit trail of progress and decision making.

1.1 Feasibility Project Objectives

The overall objective of the IT Roadmap programme is to define and then deliver a new IT
technical strategy for POL which enables delivery of its business strategy and key business
objectives. To enable this, the Feasibility Study aims to:

e Refine the business case for change, based on a supporting financial model for
build, deploy and operate elements

Assess the viability of achieving contractual commitment

Formally capture strategic business inputs likely to materially impact the
architectural characteristics of the solution

Capture changes to Operations and Service Management likely to impact the
architectural characteristics of the solution.

Document the target technical architecture and intermediate architectural steps to a
sufficient level to support refined business cases for both Post Office and Fujitsu
Services

Document the operational and technical migration plan to sufficient detail to permit
feasibility assessment and cost estimation

Deliver a supporting commercial model, potentially including elements of
“Objective Based Contracting” and realigned Service Level Targets, better
reflecting business drivers.

Agree approach to acceptance of new solution

1.2

Business Objectives

1.2.1. Post Office Ltd:

In order for Post Office Ltd to proceed with a Horizon replacement, the following
criteria would need to be met:

— Less than 3 year payback for investment
~— At least 25% reduction in the total annual cost of ownership
— Must meet the agreed service requirement

— No material adverse effect on 2004/05 and/or 2005/06 Post Office Ltd profit
& loss account

In order for Post Office Ltd to proceed with Fujitsu Services without external
competition, the following additional criteria would need to be met:

o A cost outcome less than or equal to what Post Office Ltd would expect to
pay as a result of a competitive tender, after taking into account the
following add-backs:

- The cost of running a competition
- The costs of transition to a new service provider

- The risk of change (comprising a factor of the likely cost of the
tisk and likelihood of it happening)

- The financial impact of a “dead” period when it would be
uneconomic to undertake further Horizon development

o The outcome to be validated by a third party “trusted” benchmark

o Delivers no less a total gross margin in net present value terms measured
from 1‘ April 2005 over the life of the contract, than under the existing
contract measured over the period 1“ April 2005 to 31“ March 2010

o Achieves a Gross Margin of 25% on Revenue (Charges to Post Office
Ltd. Net of VAT)

o Has an extended term to 31 March 2015.

Other Considerations

+ Engagement will be made with Fujitsu Tokyo to gain buy-in to the significant
contract change

1.3 Summary of Scope

To ensure the overall objectives can be achieved consideration of the following must be
included:

e The Post Office Business Strategy

e The Business Migration strategy determined by business benefit realisation
requirements

¢ Definition of total POL target architectures - Business / Technical / Service
Management

e Architecture cost profile and benefits
e Contracting model and approach to proving VFM.

Other activities associated with the bid submission and evaluation process and contract
negotiation and approval processes (after the Heads of Agreement stage), are not
considered a part of this study, and will be managed separately though they may take place
in parallel with this study.

1.4 Deliverables

From 1 August 2004, Fujitsu Services will continue to provide a base re-
architecture team of 5 people until the Post Office Business Plan (including Head of
Agreement) is approved; anticipated to be at the end of September or early October.
During this period, Post Office and Fujitsu Services can agree for Fujitsu Services
to provide further level of resource, above the base team of 5, on the common
benefit to current and future architecture work, which would be covered by
Commercial Terms, under the current contract, with the costs met by Post Office. It
is recognised that the IT RoadMap schedule may need to be revised if the Post
Office approval process becomes unduly extended or agreement to additional
resource is not reached and the Fujitsu team is deployed on other activities. If in the
event that Post Office approval is not reached by 31 December 2004 then Fujitsu
Services and Post Office will agree how IT RoadMap may be progressed.

3 Project Strands & Deliverable Definition

This section together with Appendix I (Deliverable Product Descriptions Summary Table),
describes the work strands and deliverables of the Feasibility Study project. The
deliverables described are an initial list which requires joint POL / Fujitsu review to ensure
relevance and content.

Following feasibility, Heads of Agreement are scheduled for end September 04 and final
contract for end January 2005. Separate commercial approval will be sought, following
completion of this project, to commence detailed requirements analysis and design
activities necessary to maintain target delivery dates.

The work strands are identified as:

Business

Threat Analysis

Solution

Implementation Planning
Services

Technical

Commercial

The following section describes the activities within each Strand.

Note: Deliverables are documented in Appendix I and changes may be made to these as the
Feasibility Study project progresses. Any such changes will be subject to Project
Governance.

Strand Leaders, identified below, are responsible for the day-to-day coordination of
resources and timely production of the deliverables within their strand.

3.1 Business Strand
3.1.1 Strand Summary

The overall objective of this strand is to ensure that the Next Generation solution is informed by the most
up-to-date understanding of Post Office strategies and intentions, where these may have an impact on the
solution.

It is recognised that during the period of feasibility the level of detail available will be variable dependant
on the maturity of the business project. Where the consequences of strategic intentions are not yet fully
understood, working assumptions will be agreed, documented and verified when the detailed
implications of the strategy materialise.

Many of the topic areas identified here represent aspirations and opportunities that may not form part of
the final solution.

This strand will be owned by Post Office Ltd. Findings will be input to the Solution and Technical
Strands, as appropriate.

3.1.2 Strand Leadership

POL — Paul Homan
Fujitsu - Dave Cook

3.2 Business Threat Strand

3.2.1 Strand Summary

The overall objective of this strand is to ensure that the Next Generation solution is informed by the most
up-to-date understanding of Post Office business threats, where these may have an impact on the
solution. The key outputs from this strand will determine the service/solution Availability targets and
Security requirements, ideally expressed in business (rather than technical) terms

This strand will be owned by Post Office Ltd. Findings will be input to the Solution and Technical
Strands, as appropriate.
3.2.2 Strand Leadership

POL - Mike Wells
Fujitsu — Tony Drahota

3.3 Solution Strand
3.3.1 Strand Summary

It has been agreed in principle that documenting a full business requirement for the counter environment
would not be practical in the timescale (see technical strand regarding development of an acceptable

approach to design and acceptance). This strand of activity seeks to document changes (“deltas”) to be
incorporated in the new solution. These arise principally from three areas:

e Changes arising due to fundamental differences in the solution model

© Changes to address fundamental shortcomings in the current architecture (e.g. lack of token
support in EPOSS service)

e Changes to enable (future) support for POL’s high level business drivers (identified in the
Business Strand)

The basic assumption has been made that the Next Generation solution will replace the current
functionality as delivered in the S80 release.

The Strand deliverables will describe how the Next Generation solution will differ from the S80 baseline
position. This strand will be owned by Post Office Ltd

3.3.2 Strand Leadership

POL — Clive Read

3.4 Implementation Planning Strand

3.4.1 Strand Summary

The overall objective of this strand is to ensure that agreement is reached to any deviation from the Joint
Working/IS Landscape processes that would be followed by the New Horizon
development/implementation project, with special focus on the Acceptance testing of the proposed
migration approach (“port plus delta’s”).

The strand will also jointly agree the detailed planning for the Next Stage of the project.
The strand will be jointly owned by Post Office Ltd and Fujitsu Services.

3.5 Service Design strand

3.5.1 Strand Summary

This strand will consider those topics necessary for successful delivery of the solution from a customer
services perspective.

The strand will comprise two sets of activities — those pertaining to definition of service requirements
from Customer perspective (these will be owned by POL) and those concemed with design of services

that meet the POL service requirements as well as ensuring that Fujitsu’s internal service needs are
satisfied (these will be owned by Fujitsu).

3.5.2 Strand Leadership

POL : Dave Hulbert
Fujitsu : Martin Riddell

3.6 Technical Strand

3.6.1 Strand Summary
The purpose of this strand is to validate architectural components and to verify current technical
estimates, assumptions, costs and timescales to deliver the Next Generation solution and to impart a

reasonable understanding of the overall solution.

The level of detail will vary depending on the topic e.g. the counter will be described to a level of detail
appropriate to a Design Proposal whereas minor changes will be covered by a delta description.

It should be recognised that the deliverables below will be developed during the full delivery lifecycle
and will only be completed during feasibility to a level of detail sufficient for estimating and
benchmarking.

Many of these deliverables will be refined, and taken to a further level of detail in subsequent work
following completion of feasibility. The strand will be owned by Fujitsu Services.
