for delivery is not currently clear and may have some deviation from what was originally anticipated.
 Confirmation of the Regional Reporting Strategy followed by extension of the Midland Regional Platform services to include reporting services capabilities as required.
As regional IS structures and capability mature, opportunities to leverage the foundation infrastructure building blocks such as the regional network (Midland Connected Health) and the regional hosting platform (Midland Regional Platform) are being identified. The major risks to the ICT enablement of the RSP are:
 The near and long-term affordability of the ICT program with several Midland DHBs under considerable and increasing financial pressure.
 The lack of an agreed functioning service delivery model will impact the ability to deliver the eSPACE Programme of Work.
 The volume of competing demand for local, regional and national IS delivery far exceeds capacity, and requires ongoing, rigorous efforts directed at visibility and prioritisation to manage conflicts.
 Some business work plans are not yet defined to a level of detail where there is an ability to sufficiently assess and understand the pre-requisites, funding and resource implications, which may introduce a higher level of change to the work plan than anticipated.
