Successful implementations key to longterm success

Sometimes analyzing is the easy part, execution is the hard part. At Modus21, we recognize this and work with our customers to take a completed process analysis and make sure the necessary pieces are in place to execute the strategy.

You benefit from Modus21's expertise and experience in this field. Although most organizations know what they are trying to accomplish after the project outcomes have been identified, many times they are not prepared for the many institutional roadblocks that are inherent in most organizations. We help eliminate these roadblocks when possible, and mitigate them when not.

The first step is creating a Center of Excellence to enable a corporate governing structure for continued process improvement, because this is not a one-time task. In order to see continual improvement through BPM, organizations must be willing to continually assess their processes and confirm that they are working as planned.

A big factor in this accomplishment is to ensure that the process stakeholders and the IT support staff have a clear understanding of the requirements. This eliminates many of the implementation surprises that can doom a project.

Many times, people begin with the best intentions. However, due to lack of experience, they get bogged down. As this happens, the time it takes to implement these initiatives continues to grow. At Modus21, we work with our clients to ensure that first time initiative deployments are accomplished on schedule - usually less than 90 days.

Another important aspect of any implementation program is making sure that there is a way to monitor process performance during the project, and not after the fact. There is nothing more frustrating than determining what the results of a process change will be, implementing that change, and then finding out later that it did not work. By determining project measurements that can be monitored throughout the project's implementation, Modus21 can help ensure overall project success.
