Chapter 8 – Deployment planning

8.4. Deployment planning

Deployment planning and execution ensures that the organisation is ready, supported and smoothly transitioned to the new ways of working.  The focus is on activities immediately pre and post go-live, including testing, cut-over performance and sustainability and post go-live support.

Through deployment planning, you will be able to:

  • Tie together the components of the change experience to prepare employees impacted by the programme, project, or initiative
  • Ensure impacted employees are ready to transition to new ways of working.
