This document addresses frequently asked questions regarding lab planning project status and data migration to help you understand common challenges and their resolutions.

Project Status & Data Migration

Q. For projects that have been imported from the AOP Tool, how was the "status" determined? All of ours either say "Planning at Lab" or "Planning at HQ."

A. The lab planning tool now features multi-year projects. By default, the home page will display the most recent version of a project. If you had multiple versions in multiple states, you could possibly see "planning at lab," "planning at HQ," "mode at lab," "HQ mod approved," and "approved." When projects were imported from the AOP tool, only projects active in FY25 were imported. If there was no active version of a project in FY25, it was not migrated. 


Q. When only FY25 active projects were imported, does this refer only to the detailed AOP information (task, milestone, etc.)?

A. Are older AOP projects without those details still in the old version of PM Bridge? Correct, the Lab Planning feature has the full project information for FY25 active projects. All existing lab projects that were available in PM Bridge are still available in PM Bridge.  


Q. If we don't see projects we were able to view in the SharePoint, do we need to request access to the specific office(s)? If so, what's the process to do this?

A. If you are a Technical POC, you should automatically see any projects that you are identified with as a PI. If not, please contact our help desk to support. However, if you are not a PI, then yes - the office needs to associate you as either the Lab Relationship Manager or a Lab Operations POC to view the projects. Our help desk can also support here if needed.
