Phased adoption
The actual installation of the new system will be done in several ways, per module or per product and several instances can be carried out.
By moving, the team learns and so gains expertise and knowledge, so that each subsequent implementation will be a lot faster than the first one.
First based on the previous training sessions security levels are set (see ITIL) In this way every unique user has its own profile which describes, which parts of the system are visible and/or usable to that specific user.
As described in the above text, certain departments and or parts of an organization may be implemented in different time slots.
In figure 1 that is depicted by implementing an additional module or even a total product.
In the technique used in this entry each CONCEPT requires a proper definition which is preferably copied from a standard glossary of which the source is given, if applicable.
(The American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language, Fourth Edition, 2000) (The American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language, Fourth Edition, 2000) (The American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language, Fourth Edition, 2000) The Phased adoption method has certain pros, cons and risks[8][4] Pros: Cons: Risks: The following sections are supplemental to the entry about adoption (software implementation) and are specific to phased adoption: The configuration and specification of the hardware in place used by the legacy system and to run the new system is delivered in the hardware specifications.
The actual installation of the software of the new system is also done here in a confined area to support the training sessions described in the following section.
The project team creates a skeletal business case test environment which takes the business processes from the beginning, when a customer order is received, to the end, when the customer order is shipped.
If they fear the system due to its difficult handling they may not be able to understand the cognitive steps needed to successfully carry out the tasks.
The EMR implementation at the University Physicians Group (UPG) in Staten Island and Brooklyn, New York.
The University Physicians Group in New York went with a complete technical installation of an EMR (Electronic Medical Record) software package.
The UPG found that some vendors of the EMR package recommended a rolling out that would be done all-at-one, also called the Big Bang.
But they found out that the Big Bang would have overwhelmed the physicians and staff due to the following factors: Thus they chose a phased approach: “Hence, a phased adoption to us, offered the greatest chance of success, staff adoption, and opportunity for the expected return-on-investment once the system was completely adopted.” (J. Hyman, M.D.)
If the new system does not work properly, it would not matter because only a small portion of the supermarket has been computerised.
However, the supermarket is never in danger of having to close and the staff are all able to get plenty of training in operating the new system, so it is a much friendlier method.
