Project Life Cycle   The collection of phases that are performed in completing a project. Each project phase is marked by completion of one or more deliverables. The conclusion of a project phase is generally marked by a review of both key deliverables and project performance to date. Determine if the project should continue into its next phase. Detect and correct errors.  The project life cycle defines the beginning and the end of a project. Project life cycles generally define: What technical work should be done in each phase. Who should be involved in each phase.

PRINCE2 Themes  Business Case Establish mechanisms to judge whether the project is (and remains) desirable, viable and achievable as a means to support decision-making in its continued investment. Why? Organisation Define and establish the project’s structure of accountability and responsibilities. Who? Quality Define and implement the means by which the project will create and verify products that are fit-for-purpose. What? Plans Facilitate communication and control by defining the means of delivering the products Where and how by whom, and estimating the when and how much? Risk Identify, assess and control uncertainty, and as a result improve the ability of the project to succeed. What if? Change Identify, assess and control any potential and approved changes to baselined objectives. Only if? Progress Establish mechanisms to monitor and evaluate actual achievements with planned in order to provide a forecast for the project objectives, including its continued viability.  Where are we now? Where are we going? Should we carry on?

Best Practices Approach
We want a system or a solution that enables us to provide the best quality of care to our patients and assist us in making decisions. We want a system or a solution modeled on how we work that provides access to comprehensive, real-time information from anywhere. We want a system or a solution that will help us reduce our costs and be easy to maintain and update.
Our Vision……..  Workflow Optimization Identifies key decisions and scope decisions:   What  processes  are being impacted? Which  applications  are needed to support automating the impacted processes? What  members  of the care delivery team need to be involved? What are the  interface or integration issues ? Identifies  Sequencing  of Automation
Organizational Strategy Organizational IM/IT Strategy Ensure priorities in the strategic plan are aligned with the organization’s overall goals Outline plan to achieve the IM/IT vision Establish a decision framework for future IM/IT projects that the organization pursues
What are the  constraints? How do we get there? Where are we? Where do we want to be? How do we get started? What are the impacts? Strategic Planning Framework
What is Project Success? Project success occurs when we have: and Objectives Time Cost Project Success     A delighted client  (expectations met) Delivered the agreed objectives Met an agreed budget - $, resources etc. Within an agreed time frame  Done it all professionally & without killing the team
Why Do Projects Fail? Changing scope Insufficient planning No  risk or issues management Poor communication Lack of commitment and responsibility by stakeholders
Six Sigma is a structured problem solving tool which deploys Brainstorming  & Statistical tools to identify the vital root causes and finding a solution so as  to optimize the Output. It follows DMAIC approach for problem solving. Why Six Sigma? Define the project ( Assignment ) goals and customer (internal and external) deliverables. Measure the process to determine current performance. Analyze and determine the root causes of the defects. Improve the process by working on the validated root causes Control the improved process performance to ensure sustainable results. Define Measure Analyze Improve Control

CAP Model: Change Acceleration Process (six sigma based approach) CURRENT   STATE TRANSITION STATE IMPROVED STATE Leading Change Systems and Structures Monitoring  Progress Mobilizing Commitment Shaping a Vision Creating a Shared Need Making Change Last
Change Acceleration Process (six sigma based approach) Leading Change’ Having a  sponsor/champion  who sponsors the change; who has  visible, active public commitment and support  of change. Creating A Shared Need The reason to change , whether driven by threat or opportunity, is instilled within the   organization and widely shared through data, demonstration or demand. The  need for change must exceed its resistance . Shaping A Vision The  desired outcome of change is clear , legitimate, widely  understood and shared ; the vision is shaped in behavioral terms. Mobilizing Commitment There is a  strong commitment from constituents  to invest in the change, make it work,   and demand and receive management attention; Constituents agree to change their own actions and behaviors to support the change. Making Change Last Once change is started, it  endures , and learnings are transferred throughout the   organization. Change is integrated with other key initiatives;  early wins  are encouraged to build momentum for the change. Monitoring Progress Progress is real;  benchmarks set and realized ; indicators established to guarantee   accountability. Changing Systems And Structures Making sure that the  management practices  (Staffing, Development, Rewards, Measures, Communication, Organizational Design and Information Technology Systems) are used to complement and  reinforce change

A shared recognition,  by both the team and key stakeholders, of the  need and logic for change. The ability to frame and Communicate the need for change as a combination of threats and opportunities. Creating a Shared Need produces   the ‘urgency’ to build momentum   for acceptance of the change initiative Trystorming Pilot started Preliminary impact (Target sheet) -A clear statement about the  outcomes of the change- -A view of the future state that is: Customer focused Not just one person’s dream Challenging Evolving, not static Behavioral and actionable Easy to understand -Visions paint a picture that appeals to the “head and heart”  and answers the question,  “ Where are we heading?” -A clear statement about the future situation helps gain genuine commitment -An understandable vision helps establish the milestones to monitor progress and  change systems & structures Visions provide Direction and Motivation  for Change Chase follow-up actions Deliver IT Design sustain mechanisms Coalition of  committed  stakeholders.

    Change Acceleration Process(six sigma based approach) Leading Change’ Having a sponsor/champion who sponsors the change; who has visible, active public commitment and support of change. Creating A Shared Need The reason to change , whether driven by threat or opportunity, is instilled within the organization and widely shared through data, demonstration or demand. The need for change must exceed its resistance . Shaping A Vision The desired outcome of change is clear , legitimate, widely understood and shared ; the vision is shaped in behavioral terms. Mobilizing Commitment There is a strong commitment from constituents to invest in the change, make it work, and demand and receive management attention; Constituents agree to change their own actions and behaviors to support the change. Making Change Last Once change is started, it endures , and learnings are transferred throughout the organization. Change is integrated with other key initiatives; early wins are encouraged to build momentum for the change. Monitoring Progress Progress is real; benchmarks set and realized ; indicators established to guarantee accountability. Changing Systems And Structures Making sure that the management practices (Staffing, Development, Rewards, Measures, Communication, Organizational Design and Information Technology Systems) are used to complement and reinforce change

Perf baseline Ease / Impact chart … prioritize improvements Future state Forces any resistance or apathy to be addressed head-on. Validates why the project is important and critical to do. Builds the momentum needed to get the change initiative communicated and launched. Awareness of the dissatisfaction with the current state. A shared recognition, by both the team and key stakeholders, of the need and logic for change. The ability to frame and Communicate the need for change as a combination of threats and opportunities. Creating a Shared Need produces the ‘urgency’ to build momentum for acceptance of the change initiative Trystorming Pilot started Preliminary impact (Target sheet) -A clear statement about the outcomes of the change- -A view of the future state that is: Customer focused Not just one person’s dream Challenging Evolving, not static Behavioral and actionable Easy to understand -Visions paint a picture that appeals to the “head and heart” and answers the question, “ Where are we heading?” -A clear statement about the future situation helps gain genuine commitment -An understandable vision helps establish the milestones to monitor progress and change systems & structures Visions provide Direction and Motivation for Change Chase follow-up actions Deliver IT Design sustain mechanisms Coalition of committed stakeholders. Identification of potential resistance and a strategy to overcome it. Mobilizing the Commitment of Key Stakeholders is Essential to the Success of the Change. Communicate & educate Extend scope of changes Check compliance on new process Did we change the way we work? Assess final business / customer impact Consistent, visible, tangible reinforcement of the change initiative Integration of new initiative becomes the way we work Changes to Systems and Structures enable the new behavior that supports the Vision Launching a Change is just the beginning. It must become the Way of Life
