It doesn't matter, of course, that your work is trying to fix their incorrect design in the first place...
Interestingly enough it has changed again so I will be making a point of ensuring the next report does not say 'Blocked' by oPM.Comment

In my experience of large consultancies, their director/client liaison will be sitting in progress meetings saying that the reason for the delay is that they are waiting on your work, regardless of what the plan status actually says anyway, and leaving it open to interpretation.Comment

However on the test plan it is showing as 'Blocked' by oPMco - my view is that it is not blocked at all - it is in rework because the requirements we got were wrong.
Any idea's or comments?"You’re just a bad memory who doesn’t know when to go away" JRComment
