Project
and implementation management
Links

Summary
Manage
a project to ensure delivered to specification, on
time and in budget.
This may include the full project process (planning, process
map, requirements spec,
gap analysis, solution and
implementation), fix a
project failing to deliver or provide
specific services for
particular stages
of a project.
Deliverables and
phases
Typically, deliverables for this service for
involvement at the start of the
project
(planning phase) will include:
A
published plan for completion of the project. This will
identify timescales, resources
and a logical sequence of
actions. This plan
will be created by the project manager
and published after
approval by the
stakeholders or project steering committee.
Regular (weekly) communications reporting progress against
the plan and issues for
discussion and resolution.
One person who manages the whole project
from start to
finish. This represents
a single point of contact for all
staff working within
or affected by the project.
This also allows the project to
be managed by a
person whose day job is exclusively
dedicated to the
project’s successful
completion.
Stages
Typical
stages for a Nav project from the planning phase
will include:
Project planning (creation and publication of plan, sign off
by all parties affected).
Process map (map existing process and systems including IT
infrastructure as required).
Requirements analysis (based on what is required not what
has been provided in the past).
Gap analysis (requirements versus existing, process and
system).
Solution agreement (solution based on results of gap
analysis)
IT infrastructure enhancements (for roll out of solution)
Nav licence and module purchase (based on modules needed for
requirements)
Nav installation and roll out.
Nav configuration (based on modules needed for requirements)
Nav developments (based on system gap analysis).
Nav training (based in requirements)
Data migration (based on modules in use, master files and
transactions).

Confucius
says
All that is
required for completion of a project ‘to spec,
on time and to budget’ is the 3 corner stones of project management -
resource,
budget and time! Compromising on 1 has an impact on the remaining
factors. For example, if the project needs to be completed quickly,
this will incur additional resource requirements and cost more! |
