Employ The Educe Group's established methodology to maximize your system implementation’s return on investment. Whether you are implementing an integrated talent suite or a single LMS, whether you are introducing learning technology into your organization or performing a subsequent upgrade to your environment, our approach identifies and meets your business requirements efficiently and completely.

• Elicit / Educate. Initiate your system implementation project effectively with Educe's thorough strategic planning. Determining your business objectives and the most judicious path towards their realization are pivotal first steps that we approach systematically and exhaustively. We engage your enterprise's stakeholders and work with key personnel to define high-level and detailed requirements across your organization. After identifying risks and a sound action plan to mitigate them, our consultants ensure that the project is aligned with your business goals. We provide tools, templates, and years of experience to help establish the scope, roles and responsibilities, requirements, deliverables, goals, and strategy that will shape the project from kick-off to completion.
  
  
• Design. Ensure that your organization's business objectives are met through comprehensive functional and technical solutions. We ensure that your requirements are addressed and solutions documented in specifications, issuing a specific project schedule to include roles, deliverables, milestones and dependencies. Our technical consultants will develop a detailed design for your new system and review the plans with you, documenting strategy, configurations, and any customizations for the entire project.
  
  
• Unify. Make the implementation stage of your project one of communication and confidence rather than caution and concern. Educe's iterative approach to this and each phase of the project ensures that we move forward together in the most sensible, practical way possible. As our consultants construct the framework and detailed configuration of your system, they model the solution in a sandbox environment for you to validate the strategy being employed. As code, content, reports, and training materials are developed and installed, your designated personnel remain fully involved and apprised of each step along the way.
  
  
• Confirm. Validate the newly implemented system in an even more focused manner as we collectively perform rigorous testing on the developed system. Strategy, scripts, and steps for both Quality Assurance Testing by Educe consultants and User Acceptance Testing by your staff are created and communicated collaboratively. Together we confirm that the system matches the design and delivers the intended functionality originally determined by your stakeholders.
  
  
• Execute / Evaluate. Finalize the system implementation project with the same surety and success that Educe has provided in each prior stage. We help roll out your new system using an approach that fosters communication and adoption. At the same time, we deliver cutover support and training to administrators, users, and helpdesk staff in order to maximize the knowledge transfer and empower your system support staff. We provide thorough documentation on lessons learned, analyze the effectiveness of the project, and determine what next steps should be taken as the life cycle of your system implementation concludes and the operations of your new system commence.
