Establish and maintain the plans for deploying the selected process and technology improvements.
The plans for deploying each process and technology improvement may be included in the organization’s plan for organizational innovation and deployment or they may be documented separately.
The implementation of this specific practice complements the Deploy Organizational Process Assets specific practice in the Organizational Process Focus process area, and adds the use of quantitative data to guide the deployment and
to determine the value of the improvements with respect to quality and process-performance objectives.
Refer to the Organizational Process Focus process area for more information about deploying organizational process assets.
This specific practice plans the deployment of individual process and technology improvements. The Plan the Process generic practice addresses comprehensive planning that covers the specific practices in this process
area.
Typical Work Products
1. Deployment plan for selected process and technology improvements
Subpractices
1. Determine how each process and technology improvement must be adjusted for organization-wide deployment.
Process and technology improvements proposed within a limited context (e.g., for a single project) might have to be modified to work across the organization.
2. Determine the changes necessary to deploy each process and technology improvement.
Examples of changes needed to deploy a process and technology improvement include the following:
· Process descriptions, standards, and procedures
· Work environments
· Education and training
· Skills
· Existing commitments
· Existing activities
· Continuing support to end users
· Organizational culture and characteristics
3. Identify strategies to address potential barriers to deploying each process and technology improvement.
4. Establish measures and objectives for determining the value of each process and technology improvement with respect to the organization’s quality and process-performance
objectives.
Examples of measures for determining the value of a process and technology improvement include the following:
· Return on investment
· Time to recover the cost of the process or technology improvement
· Measured improvement in the project’s or organization’s process performance
· Number and types of project and organizational risks mitigated by the process or technology improvement
· Average time required to respond to changes in project requirements, market situations, and the business environment
Refer to the Measurement and Analysis process area for more information about establishing objectives for measurement and analysis, specifying the measures and analyses to be performed, obtaining and analyzing measures, and
reporting results.
5. Document the plan for deploying each process and technology improvement.
6. Review and get agreement with relevant stakeholders on the plan for deploying each process and technology improvement.
7. Revise the plan for deploying each process and technology improvement as necessary.
