Summary

The eNVD program has undergone significant change since its original release. Much of this is due to the use of agile principles and the utilisation of user feedback mechanisms. This project allocated two development and one user experience design resources to support the ongoing development and improvement of the electronic National Vendor Declaration (eNVD) system.

Objectives

1. Complete items on the eNVD backlog as identified by the Product Manager or development team
2. Contribute to supporting documentation, processes and artefacts
3. Provide recommendations for areas of improvement that arise from undertaking listed tasks.

Key findings

The use of feedback mechanisms, coupled with agile practices allows for increased adoption of the eNVD system.

Benefits to industry

The work on this project will contribute to an eNVD product that is significantly improved. The result of such will allow producers to reduce time taken to complete a consignment and fill in multiple forms on consignment entry with reduced error. This will lead to increased compliance and improved record keeping systems for producers.

MLA action

1. Continue to utilise agile practices and principles within the eNVD.
2. Complete further research on development that can be undertaken to improve adoption of the eNVD platform.

Future research

This project will inform future developments within the eNVD production system and begin assisting with the professional development of the eNVD team to agile practices and principles. In addition to this, the project will allow for initial collection and analysis of customer feedback informed design, which will provide context for eNVD landscape studies and future technical development within the LPA system.
