Hi,

We're undergoing some internal analysis and were wondering what
security groups were seeing as the proportion of time spent on
operational work vs project work.

At QUT we have a team leader who does a bit of everything as needed, an
engineer (me!) who does about 70% operations and the rest projects[1], and we
also have a full-time project manager who spends almost all his time on
project work.

Cheers
Phil

[1] Figures are a little rubbery.  My definition of projects is a little
different to yours - I think that some of what I would term consulting or
service improvement (and therefore operational from my POV) would be a project
for you - but I've tried to fit you criteria.
