5.3 System Implementation
System Installation & Evaluation
Operational & test environment
A separate test environment is necessary to maintain system security and integrity and protect the operational environment.
Training
Training plan
users
managers
IT staff
Vendor Training
Webinars, Podcasts, and Tutorials
Outside Training Resources
Training Tips
Interactive Training
Usually, a relationship exists between training methods and costs
Online training
Should include step-by-step instructions
Video tutorials
You don’t have to be a professional video developer to create effective training tutorials
Data conversion
During data conversion, existing data is loaded into the new system.
System changeover
Direct Cutover
-similar to throwing a switch that instantly changes over from the old system to the new.
Parallel Operation
Easier to verify that the new system is working properly under parallel operation than under direct cutover
Pilot Operation
The group that uses the new system first is called the pilot site
Phased Operation
The risk of errors or failures is limited to the implemented module only
Is less expensive than full parallel operation
Post-implementation task
Prepare a post-implementation evaluation
A post-implementation evaluation should examine all aspects of the development effort and the end product — the developed information system
Deliver a final report to management.
Final versions of all system documentation
Planned modifications and enhancements to the system that have been identified
Recap of all systems development costs and schedules
Comparison of actual costs and schedules to the original estimates
Post-implementation evaluation, if it has been performed
System Implementation
Managing systems implementation involves application development, testing, documentation, training, data conversion, system changeover, and post-implementation evaluation of the results.
