Implementation

Plan

The 'real work' begins with examining current processes and developing improved business rules, and adapting implementation templates:

• Close collaboration between customer and 4Site® consultants ensures that the system truly meets the needs of the organization
• All departments that will be affected by implementing 4Site® EAM are represented on the customer project team
• A detailed project plan helps establish client and vendor roles and responsibilities and clarify expectations
• The proven 4Site® implementation template makes it simple for the project team to identify required tasks, assign responsibility and determine performance measures
• The plan is regularly reviewed and revised to incorporate changed priorities and reflect schedule and personnel changes

Implement

Implementation means working the plan, passing the milestones and meeting or revising project goals to ensure that the implementation proceeds on time and on budget:

• Pre-implementation audit determines readiness
• Documented current business practices and requirements are used to evaluate process improvements and implementing best practices
• Implementation approach - all modules at once or systems - determined by customer business drivers

Manage

Leveraging 4Site® flexibility ensures that the system will adapt to business practices now and in the future

• Post-implementation audit determines system and user readiness
• Supports an easy upgrade path
• Customer priorities and resources determine use of 4Site® application management services or in-house management
