Dale,

Actually, I would prefer to have each team have their own admin project but
we are not sure the maturity level is where it needs to be yet (as far as
methodologies, work flow, etc...). I will revisit this.

Do admin projects have limitations as far as the number of resources and
tasks go?

Thanks!

Randy
