UMA Workspace
Business Owner	Application Owner & Business Owner - John Meaking
Business Function: What business functionality does this provide? What will the impact be if this application is not available? Any peak business periods?	As part of the “Warehouse of the Future" initiative, the Nuneaton Operation has chosen to use “UMA Book” - a meeting room booking solution provided by UMA Ltd. UMA Workspaces room booking application enables organizations to visualise meeting room information on a single display panel outside the room; by seamlessly integrating with Google Workspace calendars to display bookings in real-time, as they occur, booking can also be made directly from the panel using your Google account. In summary, this solution will consist of: Display Panels - bespoke Android tablets purchased from UMA Ltd. These will be installed outside each meeting room, to display room information, availability, etc They will be hard-wired to the network infrastructure. There are eighteen meeting rooms in scope at Nuneaton (plus an additional panel in main reception). The “UMA Book” Application, which is hosted ‘in the Cloud’ by UMA Ltd. Rooms can be able to be booked via: Reception, when manned (as current practice) A panel will be made available in Nuneaton Reception for visitor booking Google Calendar Direct, via UMA portal from a PC or Laptop (login details required) Direct, via a UMA app installed on mobile devices (phones & tablets)* *There is currently an issue with gaining access to UMA by mobile devices where Users have ‘starter’ licences. Mobile access by users with an ‘Enterprise’ licence are unaffected. The workaround is, for those Users having issues with access to UMA via mobile device, to raise a support ticket on the Service Desk advising that the user cannot connect to UMA via mobile device. The ticket will then be assigned to UL EUC who will add the user to a specific group, which should allow the user to connect via the mobile app. Booking by all methods will invoke integration with UMA to align updates and bookings with the meeting room panels. It is not anticipated that Major Incidents (P1/P2) will be raised and therefore Major Incident Management will not be required. In the event of system unavailability or issues with the tablet hardware, a manual workaround is in place and documented. Software is not critical to any client Production environment, used to manage meeting room bookings only

What harm a wind too great at sea might do.
I should not see the sandy hour-glass run,
But I should think of shallows and of flats,
And see my wealthy Andrew dock'd in sand,
Vailing her high-top lower than her ribs
To kiss her burial. Should I go to church
And see the holy edifice of stone,
And not bethink me straight of dangerous rocks,
Which touching but my gentle vessel's side,
Would scatter all her spices on the stream,
Enrobe the roaring waters with my silks,
And, in a word, but even now worth this,
And now worth nothing? Shall I have the thought
To think on this, and shall I lack the thought
That such a thing bechanced would make me sad?
But tell not me; I know, Antonio
