Developing an Implementation Plan
Create a budget for expected costs and earnings over the first five years of your proposed initiative.
What are the expected material, staffing, and capital costs of your proposed initiative over its first five years?
What are the projected earnings for your organization or care setting over the first five years of your economic initiative?
How does this budget take into account the findings and feedback you received on your business case?
What assumptions are you basing your budget on?
Create an implementation plan for your proposed initiative that enables achievement of quality or service improvements in an ethical and culturally equitable way.
Did you create a timeline for the rollout?
How will you work with relevant stakeholders to ensure that your economic initiative is implemented successfully and sustained?
How will you ensure that the rollout is conducted in an ethical and culturally equitable manner?
How will you ensure that the desired quality or service improvements your economic initiative will achieve are on track during and after implementation?
Analyze the impact of your proposed initiative, once implemented, on other aspects of your organization or care setting and ways in which negative impacts could be mitigated.
What other aspects of your organization or care setting may be positively or negatively impacted by the implementation of your proposed initiative?
How will these other aspects of your organization or care setting be affected? (For example, increased workload on a testing department, borrowing of staff hours from another part of the care setting, or better communication with the community.)
How could you mitigate at least some of the negative effects on other aspects of your organization or care setting?
Explain your strategies for ensuring that your proposed initiative can remain a viable asset to the organization or care setting in the face of dynamic environmental forces.
What are the environmental risks to your economic initiative?
How could your initiative, or aspects of it, still be a viable benefit to your organization or care setting if the environment shifts in unpredictable ways?
What strategies would you propose implementing to keep all, or a portion of, your initiative a viable net benefit to your organization or care setting?
Justify the relevance and significance of the quantitative and qualitative economic, financial, and scholarly evidence you used throughout your plan to support your recommendations.
How is the evidence relevant to your organization or care setting?
How is the evidence relevant to your proposed economic initiative?
How does the evidence illustrate a solution that has been successful in the past?
How does the evidence illustrate that a recommendation is the best course of action for your situation and organization or care setting?
Write concisely and directly, using active voice.
Proofread your document before you submit it to minimize errors that could distract readers and make it more difficult for them to focus on the
substance of your implementation plan.
Adhere to the rules of grammar, usage, and mechanics.
