Long-Term and Organizational Success of Implementation

 

Adopting a workflow change requires consideration of many organization wide factors that span a much larger timescale and scope than the initial stages of implementation. The long-term success of a workflow redesign project depends not only on providing up-front support and training for end users but also on how well the project is maintained throughout its lifespan. Possible factors that influence the long-term, widespread effectiveness of a project include:

 

  • An organization’s culture, mission, vision, and values
  • End-user suggestions and feedback for improving the system
  • System glitches or bugs that were not identified in the design and implementation stages
  • Organizational restructuring or procedural changes that impact the basic functionality of the system
  • The rise of incorrect uses of the system or lack of end user accountability for correct system usage
  • New governmental or organizational requirements that have implications for the system
  • The emergence of innovations and new technologies that render the system obsolete

 

In this Discussion, you focus on how these possibilities affect the long-term and organizational success of a project.

 

To prepare

 

  • Review this week’s Learning Resources for insights on the long-term, widespread success of health care informatics projects.
  • Consider how an organization can maintain a workflow’s efficiency and effectiveness once a change is implemented.
  • Examine the long-term and organizational factors and issues mentioned above. How do these factors impact the enduring, widespread success of a project in the health care setting?
  • What strategies could be used to address or accommodate these factors and issues? For example, help-desk support, regular training modules.
