Clinic A is a relatively small office in a larger conglomerate and is being used as a proving ground for the implementation of EPIC EHR, as well as, the implementation team itself.
Project Management Approach
Project Management provides the project with a responsibility hierarchy used to resolve issues that will affect the timely completion of the project. The Project Manager is ultimately responsible for the timely completion of the project but can only do so with the support of Senior Management.
All issues compromising the quality, budget or delivery of the project will be discussed at project meetings. The project team will be responsible for developing solutions to project challenges to ensure the project stays on track.
The Project Manager will distribute a weekly Project Status Report that identifies any issues affecting the critical path of the project or cost adjustments. The Project Manager will look to Senior Management to assist in negotiating the resources or project completion date. The Project Status Report will be distributed to the Project Sponsors identified above.
