Five Key Stages1. The Evaluation Process

2. Deploying the Software

3. Communication Change

4. Migration Strategy

5. Post Deployment Options

Planning and understanding the unique needs of your organization is such a crucial component in any migration.

o Three questions to consider:• What are the new features of the software?• What is your deployment strategy?• What is the potential impact to our employees?

The Importance of Preparation

Number ONEEvaluate the software or operating system and understand how your employees use it daily.

Average Employee - $40,000 or $19.23 per hour or $.32 per minute Average Employee works 240 days per year Struggles with new version of SharePoint for 20 minutes per day = $6.40

(lost productivity) Ask another employee for help - $6.40 x 2 =$12.80 Small Company – 50 employees = $153,600 (in lost productivity) Medium Company – 500 employees = $1,536,000 (in lost productivity) Large Company – 2,000 employees = $6,144,000 (in lost productivity) Enterprise Company – 10,000 employees = $30,720,000 (in lost

productivity)

Consider This…

How will you deploy the new version to your employees and incorporate training?

Number TWO

How will you communicate this change to your organization?

Number THREE

What resources will you need to execute to ensure your migration strategy is successful?

Number FOUR

There is more to a migration than just training your employees.

Other things to consider….

Other Resources to Consider

Consider all of your post- deployment options.

Number FIVE

Evaluate the software or operating system and establish how exactly you want your employees

to use it to better perform their daily duties.
