Even the best software is ineffective when not implemented correctly. I have seen a variety of procedures used to implement software. Some have worked brilliantly, while others resulted in exorbitant costs and requirements never being met. The purpose of the paper is to identify key items that should be addressed during implementation and to provide some of the lessons learned from my experience in EHS software. I have distilled the process down into the following 10 crucial steps: 1. Assembling the appropriate team; 2. Project definition and planning; 3. Reporting; 4. Codes/initial configuration; 5. Integrations; 6. Data migration; 7. Testing; 8. Training; 9. Pilot project; 10. Rollout The steps commonly overlap one another and may not follow the exact order shown. Some tasks are optional, though recommended to ensure the success of the project. Consider your specific needs and issues when defining your project plans.
