26 00:07:00.610 00:07:03.509 Awaish Kumar: Let’s wait for one more minute, and then we can start.

27 00:07:17.100 00:07:28.250 Awaish Kumar: Okay, I think we should start here. For the wedding spoons, we wanted to close out MFM models and the pipeline for expense data and all the QA.

28 00:07:28.500 00:07:32.319 Awaish Kumar: So, Debbie… You can go.

29 00:07:37.130 00:07:38.250 Awaish Kumar: The bloody?

30 00:07:39.810 00:07:47.380 Demilade Agboola: Hi, Dumari here. So the… we’ve been able to close out the models for… the…

31 00:07:47.510 00:07:56.389 Demilade Agboola: With MSQL’s model for the MRM data, they’re happy with that. They were able to use it in a call, in a meeting with some other clients, yes.

32 00:07:56.490 00:07:58.519 Demilade Agboola: day before yesterday, I think, Tuesday.

33 00:07:59.310 00:08:08.650 Demilade Agboola: They had some quick fixes, we also did that, they seem happy with that. In terms of the spend data, it’s at a bit of a standstill, and…

34 00:08:08.760 00:08:13.780 Demilade Agboola: I guess they, from a happiness perspective, they wanted us to have escalated that earlier.

35 00:08:14.120 00:08:21.729 Demilade Agboola: to the Spins team, but it’s still a work in progress to just, like, finalize the loopholes in the data.

36 00:08:25.070 00:08:27.050 Awaish Kumar: Okay, yeah, actually.

37 00:08:30.920 00:08:37.549 Ashwini Sharma: Yeah, so, like, I don’t really have an update regarding this keyway.

38 00:08:37.770 00:08:44.120 Ashwini Sharma: I think Utham, they… since, folks have sent out an invite to Uttam, like, I haven’t got that invite.

39 00:08:44.230 00:08:49.149 Ashwini Sharma: So maybe in that invite, we can discuss, with the SPINS folks what’s the issue with data?

40 00:08:49.370 00:08:50.010 Awaish Kumar: Okay.

41 00:08:50.010 00:08:54.509 Ashwini Sharma: And we can, you know, move forward from that point onwards.

42 00:08:55.000 00:09:01.720 Awaish Kumar: Okay, so, like, the plan for this week is to close as much as possible on the spins, if we can.

43 00:09:01.830 00:09:04.070 Awaish Kumar: Yep. And, yeah.

44 00:09:04.210 00:09:12.690 Awaish Kumar: Bill, anything on top of this, okay? Great. I think, yeah, we are a bit delayed on this, but let’s see if… how much we can do here.

45 00:09:12.910 00:09:20.970 Awaish Kumar: Oh, And moving on to… Excuse me… ETA here…

46 00:09:21.370 00:09:25.429 Awaish Kumar: I think, we actually closed quite a few of

47 00:09:25.570 00:09:28.120 Awaish Kumar: Few tickets here, I think these are also…

48 00:09:28.230 00:09:31.740 Awaish Kumar: Kind of that. These two, we can,

49 00:09:34.180 00:09:39.050 Awaish Kumar: actually close out, because in the meeting yesterday with the client.

50 00:09:39.330 00:09:46.629 Awaish Kumar: They told me that it’s not super important. We don’t really… they don’t really want, like, exact copy of the PDF.

51 00:09:46.730 00:09:48.229 Awaish Kumar: They just wanted us to…

52 00:09:48.890 00:09:54.939 Awaish Kumar: Build something for them as a base, and then they can start to explore and ask for more.

53 00:09:55.750 00:10:04.910 Awaish Kumar: I think yesterday’s meeting went well. They were happy with that. They are going to take that to our internal team and come back with feedback.

54 00:10:05.200 00:10:08.720 Awaish Kumar: So, yeah, all good here. Actually, you want to give updates?

55 00:10:10.030 00:10:21.100 Ashwini Sharma: Yeah, I completed the things that were assigned to me, and I have taken, one more… I had taken… no, it’s not there. Basically, it was the committee participation.

56 00:10:21.330 00:10:25.469 Awaish Kumar: Okay. Did Utam already did that? Committee participation? I thought he had not done it.

57 00:10:25.950 00:10:31.809 Awaish Kumar: I think he has. So, you can look at his PR again to confirm, but I think he has already done that.

58 00:10:31.810 00:10:34.190 Ashwini Sharma: And apart from that.

59 00:10:34.190 00:10:43.139 Awaish Kumar: For CTA, I have one ticket that I want to discuss at the end of the stand-up, so yeah, if you want to stay, actually, we can do that.

60 00:10:43.570 00:10:44.340 Ashwini Sharma: Sure, sure, yeah.

61 00:10:44.340 00:10:44.710 Awaish Kumar: Okay.

62 00:10:44.710 00:10:45.240 Ashwini Sharma: Yep.

63 00:10:46.650 00:10:48.020 Awaish Kumar: And then…

64 00:10:52.630 00:10:53.800 Awaish Kumar: Element?

65 00:10:53.960 00:10:57.489 Awaish Kumar: And, yeah, for the element…

66 00:10:57.970 00:11:04.720 Awaish Kumar: Yeah, I can give updates that client is happy, we have delivered the also documentation.

67 00:11:04.820 00:11:06.400 Awaish Kumar: And we are in the same…

68 00:11:06.610 00:11:18.869 Awaish Kumar: State, where we have the detailed models, we have the wholesale documentation shared with the client already, and we have today’s check-in meeting today with them, and we are going to

69 00:11:19.200 00:11:22.730 Awaish Kumar: Let’s share what… whatever we have done so far this week.

70 00:11:23.260 00:11:26.810 Awaish Kumar: And I think Clyde… Clyde is going well here.

71 00:11:28.350 00:11:29.330 Awaish Kumar: So, yeah.

72 00:11:30.670 00:11:39.009 Awaish Kumar: It’s, then again… Moving on to basically…

73 00:11:39.410 00:11:43.449 Awaish Kumar: ABC, I think we already delivered what was asked.

74 00:11:44.230 00:11:46.429 Awaish Kumar: Usva, you could go.

75 00:11:49.420 00:11:52.590 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, for EVC, there’s not much, updates.

76 00:11:52.730 00:11:54.290 Mustafa Raja: In the data side, yeah.

77 00:11:55.100 00:11:55.880 Awaish Kumar: Okay.

78 00:11:57.370 00:12:01.749 Awaish Kumar: Okay, that’s that, then we can then move on to default.

79 00:12:02.220 00:12:06.379 Awaish Kumar: Yeah, I will let Debbie speak about it.

80 00:12:09.140 00:12:16.710 Demilade Agboola: So for default, it’s been a slow week in terms of, like, client expectations and being able to meet that.

81 00:12:17.450 00:12:25.100 Demilade Agboola: But generally, I think they’re still happy, but we have gotten some news that they have been able to create the S3.

82 00:12:25.350 00:12:30.740 Demilade Agboola: bucket, so I’ll be looking into that today and ensuring that we can start ingestion of data, so…

83 00:12:31.050 00:12:37.799 Demilade Agboola: We can potentially make them, like, see other benefits beyond just, like, ad hoc requests here and there.

84 00:12:38.720 00:12:39.460 Awaish Kumar: Okay.

85 00:12:42.530 00:12:47.960 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, from my side, I was able to deliver this, region analysis. It’s in review.

86 00:12:48.470 00:12:53.729 Mustafa Raja: And then there’s another ad hoc request that we probably will deliver next week.

87 00:12:55.000 00:13:02.630 Awaish Kumar: Okay, I saw, I think, yesterday you mentioned about some of the adopt requests, right? I can’t see the ticket here.

88 00:13:03.180 00:13:08.179 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, the ticket isn’t here because we will be delivering that next week.

89 00:13:08.530 00:13:09.280 Awaish Kumar: Okay.

90 00:13:09.860 00:13:17.049 Awaish Kumar: So, for this week, we are focusing on S3. I think, if… if, Debbie, you are concerned that

91 00:13:17.740 00:13:29.670 Awaish Kumar: the client thinks that we are slow. Maybe here, like, now that we have got this 3-axis, I think, like, start syncing all the injections from all the connectors

92 00:13:29.780 00:13:32.170 Awaish Kumar: would be nice, we still have two days to…

93 00:13:32.930 00:13:40.309 Awaish Kumar: to, like, show something that we have ingested some of the data there, I think that will help this.

94 00:13:43.950 00:13:47.459 Demilade Agboola: Yeah, I agree. That will be the focus for the next two days.

95 00:13:48.220 00:13:49.230 Awaish Kumar: Okay, great.

96 00:13:49.870 00:13:54.520 Awaish Kumar: Then, Bobby, for Peter, I think I have… Close that…

97 00:13:56.380 00:14:01.560 Awaish Kumar: For the EDUP, we have some requests from Zoran. So, one was regarding the…

98 00:14:01.800 00:14:14.119 Awaish Kumar: catalyst that I’ve already worked on, so that is done. Second one, regarding upflows, I hope… actually, you are taking a look of that, with the help of Treblade.

99 00:14:14.420 00:14:20.340 Awaish Kumar: And, that, that ladder, you also had, Ticket for that.

100 00:14:21.190 00:14:23.119 Awaish Kumar: So, yeah, you gotta speak for Lisa.

101 00:14:29.370 00:14:31.080 Awaish Kumar: Yeah, I shouldn’t get to go off.

102 00:14:31.080 00:14:49.549 Ashwini Sharma: Yeah, yeah, for, yeah, the, the Zoran issue, right, with the North Beam, upfronts, North Vim thing, I, I will take care of that. Maybe not this week, but, in the upcoming week. This week, I have another task for Eden, which I need to work on today and tomorrow to fix it.

103 00:14:49.550 00:14:50.600 Awaish Kumar: What other tasks?

104 00:14:50.790 00:14:56.629 Ashwini Sharma: There is one, I don’t see it in this view, but there’s one ticket assigned to me.

105 00:14:59.440 00:15:06.360 Ashwini Sharma: Can you look at it, yes, this one, yeah.

106 00:15:06.360 00:15:07.550 Awaish Kumar: Okay, great.

107 00:15:07.550 00:15:10.390 Ashwini Sharma: get in touch with Zora and figure out what needs to be done there.

108 00:15:11.500 00:15:14.950 Awaish Kumar: Okay, yeah, Debbie.

109 00:15:19.170 00:15:27.709 Demilade Agboola: So I’m just speaking to my ticket. I’m currently just working on this, I’m almost done, and I’ll send it to the chat to tag, Robert.

110 00:15:27.960 00:15:31.670 Demilade Agboola: And let them see the disparities between what we can do and what they have.

111 00:15:34.730 00:15:35.780 Awaish Kumar: Okay, great.

112 00:15:35.940 00:15:43.830 Awaish Kumar: I think we are pretty good here. If we close some of these tickets on Eden, we will be in a pretty good spot.

113 00:15:44.060 00:15:49.990 Awaish Kumar: I have closed out EWS part, and I think at the end of it.

114 00:15:51.310 00:15:56.339 Awaish Kumar: End of this week, we will have a clear plan for the EWS project.

115 00:15:56.440 00:15:58.740 Awaish Kumar: I think we gotta start that next week.

116 00:16:00.960 00:16:06.820 Awaish Kumar: Yeah, I think that’s all… From my side, Get up to stand up.

117 00:16:08.710 00:16:09.829 Awaish Kumar: Any one of you.

118 00:16:12.760 00:16:13.589 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, maybe I wish I could…

119 00:16:14.170 00:16:19.859 Uttam Kumaran: Stick around it, we can talk… me and you can talk about elements, if you want, just briefly about the plan for later.

120 00:16:20.220 00:16:21.120 Awaish Kumar: Okay, sure.

121 00:16:23.680 00:16:24.970 Uttam Kumaran: I think that’s it, otherwise.

122 00:16:27.760 00:16:32.129 Awaish Kumar: Yeah, I wanted to discuss about CTA, one ticket for CTA, right?

123 00:16:32.170 00:16:32.850 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah.

124 00:16:32.850 00:16:33.330 Awaish Kumar: I shouldn’t.

133 00:16:47.640 00:16:56.140 Uttam Kumaran: For Element, yeah, so we have our meeting later today. I guess I’m interested in…

134 00:16:56.370 00:17:01.019 Uttam Kumaran: Seeing if we can prepare the retail spreadsheet.

135 00:17:01.980 00:17:05.270 Uttam Kumaran: With the retail data?

136 00:17:06.480 00:17:08.359 Uttam Kumaran: Like, kind of synced, basically.

137 00:17:09.490 00:17:13.640 Awaish Kumar: Yeah, like, I think, syncing the raw data

138 00:17:13.839 00:17:16.830 Awaish Kumar: So it’s not a problem, it will be done.

139 00:17:17.329 00:17:21.809 Awaish Kumar: But, I’m… I’m concerned about the formatting at all.

140 00:17:22.069 00:17:23.920 Awaish Kumar: A nice view out of that.

141 00:17:25.089 00:17:25.679 Uttam Kumaran: Okay.

142 00:17:25.969 00:17:33.959 Uttam Kumaran: Well, you can… all I need you to do is sync it to the Google Sheet, and then we can hand it to Robert. We don’t need to build it, our… either of us are not gonna build it.

143 00:17:35.010 00:17:40.810 Awaish Kumar: Okay, like, yeah, I mean, like, we… okay, I will work on that to sync the raw data.

144 00:17:40.810 00:17:43.400 Uttam Kumaran: Okay. I could share that, share that with Robert.

145 00:17:43.780 00:17:46.790 Awaish Kumar: Okay, that’s… that’s… that’s carbon… that can be true.

146 00:17:48.270 00:17:52.730 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, cool. And then I’m gonna work a bit on, documentation.

147 00:17:53.250 00:18:03.710 Uttam Kumaran: Today, in preparation, wondering if… if we can also start to put

148 00:18:03.990 00:18:06.860 Uttam Kumaran: Like, a little bit of a document…

149 00:18:08.320 00:18:17.530 Uttam Kumaran: together on, like, February plan, maybe I can get your thoughts down, and then I can also help with… to that, so we can come prepared for the sprint plan.

150 00:18:20.330 00:18:27.789 Awaish Kumar: like, in the Gantt chart, what I planned for February was to have retail March ready.

151 00:18:27.930 00:18:33.890 Awaish Kumar: And e-commerce was ready, and the spreadsheets ready. That’s all.

152 00:18:34.770 00:18:35.490 Awaish Kumar: Bye.

156 00:18:42.730 00:18:49.579 Uttam Kumaran: So yeah, I mean, we have, like, both these marts, we have all the different connectors, so I just want to, like, start a Notion…

157 00:18:49.770 00:18:53.380 Uttam Kumaran: Or I want to start a Google Doc just around, like, February plan.

158 00:18:53.640 00:18:57.790 Uttam Kumaran: And then we can collaborate, and I can turn that into slides in the Gantt chart.

159 00:18:59.270 00:19:02.739 Awaish Kumar: Okay, so you read that in the meeting today, right?

160 00:19:03.340 00:19:08.440 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, so, like, any time in the next, like, 2 hours, if you’re able to work on that, that would be helpful.

161 00:19:10.260 00:19:11.850 Awaish Kumar: Okay, yeah.

162 00:19:11.850 00:19:13.629 Uttam Kumaran: Prep for the meeting beforehand.

163 00:19:14.300 00:19:21.050 Awaish Kumar: Yeah, I will do that. I will work… I will work on this document first, and then, the sync it.

164 00:19:21.160 00:19:22.490 Awaish Kumar: The data for it.

165 00:19:23.070 00:19:23.910 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, okay.

166 00:19:24.050 00:19:24.600 Awaish Kumar: Okay.

167 00:19:25.620 00:19:31.330 Uttam Kumaran: Actually, maybe the… I think the data sync for retail may be more important.

168 00:19:31.430 00:19:33.709 Awaish Kumar: Because we can get that to Robert.

169 00:19:33.810 00:19:35.509 Uttam Kumaran: Today, for him to work on.

170 00:19:36.020 00:19:38.870 Uttam Kumaran: And I’m gonna go to the strategy meeting, and I can let him know.

171 00:19:40.210 00:19:50.309 Awaish Kumar: Okay, like, there are… like, I saw that scratch pad from, Shivari. There are… some of the tickets could be… some of the metrics that she mentioned could be missing.

172 00:19:50.580 00:19:52.780 Awaish Kumar: Because we don’t have that data.

173 00:19:53.130 00:19:54.279 Awaish Kumar: That’s okay, mate.

174 00:19:55.890 00:19:57.379 Uttam Kumaran: That’s fine, yeah.

175 00:19:57.770 00:19:58.670 Uttam Kumaran: That’s okay.

176 00:19:59.620 00:20:01.390 Uttam Kumaran: As much as we have, it’s fine.

177 00:20:01.900 00:20:03.089 Awaish Kumar: Okay, thank you.

178 00:20:05.200 00:20:10.739 Uttam Kumaran: And then for CTA, yeah, how did I… I saw your note, so it went well yesterday. I was gonna call Catherine today.

179 00:20:11.430 00:20:12.120 Awaish Kumar: Okay.

180 00:20:15.960 00:20:19.159 Awaish Kumar: Like, yesterday, it went well. She…

181 00:20:19.620 00:20:22.349 Awaish Kumar: Seems… seemed to be excited, because she wanted

182 00:20:22.470 00:20:28.600 Awaish Kumar: She had something which she could share today with the community and everything.

183 00:20:28.960 00:20:35.150 Awaish Kumar: What she wanted is… That PDF report was just, like, something to create a base.

184 00:20:35.580 00:20:39.290 Awaish Kumar: Portals, because they don’t really want to replicate that.

185 00:20:41.050 00:20:41.570 Uttam Kumaran: Okay.

186 00:20:41.570 00:20:47.700 Awaish Kumar: I think that was good, but only thing they are concerned about, and they want us to do, is identity resolution.

187 00:20:47.810 00:20:57.489 Awaish Kumar: So, identity resolution in a sense that we have some tables where we don’t have the… we don’t have way to connect it with the organization.

188 00:20:57.660 00:21:00.429 Awaish Kumar: Kind of, if you will, obsession.

189 00:21:00.810 00:21:06.999 Awaish Kumar: So, what she wanted is, using the competitive email domain, or…

190 00:21:07.500 00:21:13.119 Awaish Kumar: some kind of ITs, if you can figure out ways to connect it back to organization.

191 00:21:13.730 00:21:16.270 Awaish Kumar: She said that would be a huge win.

192 00:21:17.410 00:21:18.030 Uttam Kumaran: Okay.

193 00:21:18.560 00:21:19.080 Awaish Kumar: Yep.

194 00:21:19.660 00:21:22.379 Awaish Kumar: So, yeah, that’s the one ticket that I…

195 00:21:22.640 00:21:26.520 Awaish Kumar: want to discuss… actually, if, we can do that.

196 00:21:26.890 00:21:28.440 Awaish Kumar: This, this game, yeah.

197 00:21:34.300 00:21:34.910 Uttam Kumaran: Okay.

198 00:21:35.610 00:21:40.890 Uttam Kumaran: Like, are we… do we have to provide anything today?

199 00:21:41.170 00:21:42.700 Uttam Kumaran: For their…

200 00:21:42.890 00:21:47.970 Awaish Kumar: No, no, we don’t… Okay. We don’t. We just… I just, like, they wanted…

201 00:21:48.150 00:21:53.489 Awaish Kumar: They were really, like, they wanted really… this… this identity resolution was something

202 00:21:53.690 00:21:55.840 Awaish Kumar: They really want it, so…

203 00:21:55.950 00:22:04.680 Awaish Kumar: I say, like, we can work on making, like, coming up with a plan, like, a solution. Doesn’t mean, like, we have to implement it, but we can come up with something

204 00:22:04.970 00:22:08.780 Awaish Kumar: Showcase, like, we are going to take this as a strategy, or whatever.

205 00:22:09.920 00:22:10.500 Uttam Kumaran: Okay.

206 00:22:10.710 00:22:11.260 Awaish Kumar: Yep.

207 00:22:12.310 00:22:12.880 Uttam Kumaran: Okay.

208 00:22:14.610 00:22:15.260 Awaish Kumar: Okay.

209 00:22:16.340 00:22:17.180 Awaish Kumar: Thank you.

210 00:22:17.500 00:22:19.369 Uttam Kumaran: Okay. Thanks, Awash. I’ll talk to you soon.

211 00:22:19.660 00:22:20.340 Awaish Kumar: Right.
