Product Deployment Process
The Product Deployment Process (PDP) was designed for the organization replacing one or more existing project control systems with the desire to move to an enterprise solution for consistency in process and work flow. The ideal candidates for the PDP implementation strategy is an organization with strong IT skills, dedicated resources and a background in Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) development. Delivered in seven phases, the PDP process will take you from project kick-off to live optimized usage with the following results:
- Proliance installed and running optimally, with your IT department understanding how the systems scales and operates.
- Internal Power Users understand the application functionality.
- Your Proliance administrator knows how to configure and administer Proliance.
- Your team understands the extendibility of Proliance, integrations, and DB Views.
- Meridian works with your Project Manager to lead a full implementation discovery. Meridian configuration templates are shared and leverage to document
- Your team is ready to implement Proliance to meet your organization’s business objectives.
Meridian’s PDP methodology encompasses seven deployment milestones and focuses on increasing Proliance skills for self-implementation.
- Project Initiation: Focus is on planning and identifying the roles, resources and schedule for the next six milestones.
- Installation: (optional) Focus is on getting the infrastructure setup and product installed. This is an optional step and is only applicable for client’s purchasing and hosting Proliance in their environment.
- Education: (foundations) Focus is on providing Proliance base training.
- Education: (business applications) Focus is on providing advanced Proliance application education.
- Proliance Administration: Focus is on providing the Proliance Administrator with the knowledge and training they need to configure the system and generate reports.
- Strategy and Discovery: Facilitates a discovery for production deployment leveraging information gathered in the previous steps.
- Meridian Mentorship: provides ongoing mentorship during configuration and Proliance deployment phases.
