Go-live Checklist

Pre-Go-Live Preparation

1. User Training
   Confirm that all users have completed the relevant training on PTS 5.
   Provide access to training materials and documentation.
2. Data Migration
   Verify that all necessary data (users, wards) has been successfully imported to PTS 5.
   Perform data validation to ensure accuracy.
3. Infrastructure Readiness
   Confirm that the required hardware (e.g. barcode scanners, label printers) and software (e.g. PTS Comms Client) is in place.
   Verify server capacity and performance.
4. Backup and Recovery
   Ensure that appropriate data backup and recovery mechanisms are in place.
   Test data restoration procedures.

System Configuration

1. Config Verification
   Double-check that the system configuration (e.g. user views, prescription types) to ensure they align with your requirements.
   Verify that user roles and permissions are correctly set up.
2. Integration Testing
   Test integrations with other systems (e.g. patient lookup link on booking in screen).
   (EPMA) Ensure seamless data flow between the dispensing software and PTS.

User Access and Support

1. User Account Setup
   Confirm that PTS user accounts are created for all necessary personnel.
   Verify that login credentials are distributed securely.
2. Support
   Create an account/s on tmsinsight.com.
   Verify that relevant users can access the wiki.

Go-Live Day

Communication Plan:

Execute a communication plan to inform all users about the go-live date and process. Provide contact information for support during the transition. User Acceptance Testing (UAT):

Conduct final user acceptance testing to identify any last-minute issues. Address and resolve issues promptly. Monitoring and Performance:

Monitor system performance closely during the go-live period. Address any performance issues in real-time. Contingency Planning:

Have a contingency plan in place for critical issues. Ensure that key personnel are aware of escalation procedures. Post-Go-Live: Post-Implementation Review:

Conduct a post-implementation review to gather feedback from users and stakeholders. Identify areas for improvement and implement necessary changes. Documentation Update:

Update system documentation based on any changes made during or after the go-live. Training Reinforcement:

Provide additional training or support sessions if needed. Address any recurring issues or user concerns. Performance Monitoring:

Continue monitoring system performance post-go-live. Address any lingering issues promptly. Celebration and Recognition:

Acknowledge the successful go-live with the project team and stakeholders.
