Carry out a staged roll-out
In order to validate the Roll-out model and processes, and to reduce the roll-out risk, it is recommended to carry out a staged roll-out. When possible, you should select a pilot site or department and carry out a preliminary roll-out on a limited scale.
Best practices with regards to the selection criteria of the pilot site or department are:
be representative of the rest of the sites or departments
be small scale (compared to the size of the final population)
bnable easy communication and access by the implementation team.
The reasons behind conducting a pilot roll-out may be:
Assessing the feasibility of large-scale implementation under certain conditions
Evaluating the impact of a particular roll-out model on project achievement
Demonstrating that roll-out can be implemented with existing resources
Develop a site that can serve as future model demonstration site
Increase stakeholder buy-in
Promoting consensus by showing how implementation can work
Lowers risk of failure by limiting resource usage
Assess true performance in controlled-but-live experiments
Quickly deliver a version of the solution to a targeted segment of the client population
Confirm or disprove expected results and relationships
To test and validate the benefit of the proposed solutions before final roll out
Validate the resources needed to effectively scale up roll-out
Identify additional improvements in either the solution or implementation launch itself
Improve future projections of benefits of full roll-out
Assessing the feasibility of large-scale implementation under certain conditions.
