Tips on Overcoming an Installation Mentality
Practical Steps for Ensuring You Avoid the Installation Trap
With fewer resources, reduced budgets, and increased pressure to get things done quickly, there is more risk of falling into the trap of assuming a project is complete at the point of “go live” or cut-over. This is true whether the project is transformational, technology, or process re-design related. When we mistakenly equate installation with implementation, we fall short of the real goal—Return on Investment. There are, however, specific steps you can take to better guide your project team to achieving the true measures of success—on time, on budget, to full specification, with all business, technical, and human objectives met.

Making the Case for AIM
Comparing the Accelerating Implementation Methodology to Other Change Models
Clients often ask us to compare the Accelerating Implementation Methodology (AIM) to other change models. In an effort to respond to this request, we have developed a summary of AIM benefits that can serve as a comparative checklist. If you are shopping for models, this will be a useful guide. The summary can also be used in conversations with Leaders and Sponsors on what AIM offers, and why it drives financial benefits to the organization. At the end of the day, we encourage all of our clients to compare, but to select one model. There is great value in having a common framework and language across the enterprise.
