Project team guidance#

Choose a member of the project who is a staff member at Turing to have overall responsibility for liasing with Trusted Research Environments Service Area (TRESA) on matters relating to the operation of the TRE. This person should bookmark these docs for reference and take responsibility for the completion of the project team tasks and responsibilities which are summarised below.

Trusted Research Environments Service Area (TRESA) will take responsibility for managing the TRE and tracking the completion of all operational tasks, but project teams interested to learn more can view the full list of tasks here: Tasks. Here is a high level look at the TRE project lifecycle:

Project lifecycle simplified
