Implementation Considerations
Corporate Objectives� Governance – Organizations have developed and are utilizing their corporate process(es) –
these organizations want to ensure the process(es) they have developed are applied effectively.
Specialized staff are dedicated to lead these initiatives (PMO) - process scope can vary
� Quality Assurance – Organizations have a belief that the quality of their products and services
rely and are dependent on how effectively the organizational process(es) are being followed.
Specialized staff are dedicated to perform ongoing process reviews and audits
� Continuous Improvement– Organizations recognize that operational performance (and
corporate culture) can be continually improved when the processes incorporate a metric
component. The metrics can be used to measure performance (schedule, cost, quality) of how
the products/services are being developed and delivered. Dedicated resources are used to
acquire and disseminate metric information to operational management
![Page 68: IT Methodology Webinar - Project Insightdownloads.projectinsight.net/training/it... · IT Methodology Concepts (60 mins) This series of six webinars will be presented on a bi-monthly](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042300/5ecb5c6fde228e61af6aeef2/html5/thumbnails/68.jpg)
Implementation Considerations
Scope – Existing Corporate MaturityEvery organization is using a process ( IT Methodology or IT Lifecycle or IT
Framework) to deliver products and/or services
� Optimized – IT Methodology is recognized and aligned with business objectives and routinely
delivers to operational needs and expectations – metrics for continuous improvement
� Maximized – IT Methodology is recognized and aligned with business objectives and regularly
delivers to operational needs and expectations – no metrics for continuous improvement
� Utilized – IT Methodology is recognized yet inconsistently applied resulting in deviations
(schedule, cost, quality) of the products/services being delivered
� Chaotic – IT Methodology is not recognized, process(es) are not applied
![Page 69: IT Methodology Webinar - Project Insightdownloads.projectinsight.net/training/it... · IT Methodology Concepts (60 mins) This series of six webinars will be presented on a bi-monthly](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042300/5ecb5c6fde228e61af6aeef2/html5/thumbnails/69.jpg)
Implementation Considerations
Cornerstones for SuccessEstablish Ownership/Steering Committee – have a champion
Identify and designate “process” experience/expertise (in-house/other) – experience
matters
Identify the scope of the process/methodology (ie Project Management, Software
Development, Software Testing) or phase or deliverables that will bring value once
implemented – define the piece of pie
Designate the initiative as a project – apply PM practices (initiate, plan, execute & control,
closeout) to guide the project implementation
Continuous communication (across the organization) from process development through
process training through process implementation
