Scope and Planning – it is essential to have a detailed and clearly defined and agreed scope at the start of the project. The scope will form the basis for the planning of resources, workshop schedule, and milestone deliverables.
Correct Project Resourcing - ensuring the right team is in place to carry out the Project based on scope, throughout the lifespan of the project.
Detailed Work Flow Analysis and Configuration – capturing the requirements and providing solutions, working together in workshops and online.
Successful Data Migration – focus on QA of the data and import through predefined templates, import support, and testing. There will also typically be a secondary import close to Go Live which may involve a data freeze period.
Training – hands-on as part of the workshops, with active involvement from the Customer.
Deployment and Transition Strategy (Shore and Vessel Deployment)
Testing and UAT – Initial testing of individual configuration and preparation of detailed UAT to match customer workflows
Pilot (Test) run - taking into use the crewing system on a limited number of vessels
Payroll Parallel run - a minimum of two payroll period parallel runs, to ensure accuracy and avoid errors in payroll at Go Live
Scheduled Roll Out – selecting the rollout plan that works best for your operations
Transition to Operations – ensuring a smooth handover from Project to Operations and into Adonis Support
Engagement - In addition, it is essential for the Customer to manage expectations within their project team and towards the end users. We recommend a communication plan as a key part of managing this. We also strongly recommend that onboard resources are included in the wider project team and directly involved throughout the project.
Change Management – Change Management is key to ensuring the delivery of projects on time and within budget.
Scope and Planning
The scope will be agreed upon during the Sales phase and at the start of the project
A final timeline and implementation schedule will be provided based on the final scope as agreed at the start of the project.
An estimated timeline can be provided upon request prior to the start of the project.
Timelines are based on the assumption that both meetings and workshops can take place remotely if there are continued travel constraints related to COVID-19. However, this can be tailored to timings and requirements and Adonis recommends in general a combined approach with onsite visits as well as remote working.
