💳Accelerated Payments
What it is
Reworks the accelerated payment program across the vendor tracker pages (IBM, Kyndryl, Accenture, Applied Materials): new fee calculations, consistent handling of the YGPWWGP rule, and credit card payment tracking. Prototypes were approved in June 2025.
What's happening
Ready for Development, but nothing is lined up: all nine issues are in backlog and none has an assignee. Two of them carry High priority individually. A note from November 2025 sequenced this after YGPWWGP, which is itself still in scoping. The requirements are over a year old and may be worth reconfirming before work starts. Whether the external clients named here are affected, or only the internal tracker pages, is still to be confirmed.
