Deduplicate Tock and Float #1

Open lauraGgit opened 8 years ago

lauraGgit commented 8 years ago

18F uses Tock to track past staff project allocations and uses Float to predict future staff project allocations. Both systems contain very similar information but with very different temporal aspects: Tock contains historical data, while Float contains projected future data. However, the data elements are very similar.

Since both applications are used for managing the business of 18F, it is critical that the common data elements between the two are regularly reconciled. For instance, analysis quickly breaks down if a project in Float has a name attribute that varies from the project name attribute in Tock.
