  1. Increasing Clarity Perception and Adoption

  2. Agenda • Survey – What is Your State of Adoption • Keys to Success – What We Have Seen • Participant Lessons Learned • Amway • Fiserv • Open Mic – Others with Lessons Learned • Q&A

  3. Survey – Where Do You Fall?(Two Audiences: Management and Users) Five (5) Zero (0) Maximized Value • Clarity Data Drives Decisions • Users Believe Clarity Helps them Perform Their Job • Executives Use Clarity Constantly • Disruption Free Releases/Upgrades Low Value Perception • Problems that Cause Low Value Perception: • Spreadsheet Rich Environment Driving Decisions • Users See No Value in Clarity • Executives Never Log Into Clarity • Clarity is slow and upgrades are expensive/Painful

  4. Keys to Success • Executive Support • Be Prepared • Effective Information Campaign • Invest in Training / Mentoring • Engage the Users – Provide Real Value • Don’t be a Perfectionist • Implement Functionality in Stride • Monitor Performance • Optimal Tool Configuration

  5. Executive Support • Executives MUST Buy Into the Value Proposition – Big Picture • Executives MUST be Vocal in Their Support • Establish the Right Governance Model • Executive Steering Committee & Rego Exec Leadership • Strategic Direction and Wave Content Approval • Checkpoints on Progress • Approval of Process & Architecture Decisions • Core Project Team • Process and Architecture Decision Recommendations • Configuration and Prototype • Subject Matter Experts / Clarity Evangelists • Change Management / Communication • Project Managers (Rego & Client) • Works with Executive Steering Committee • Resolves Conflicts and Owns Final Core Team Decisions • Ensures solutions are in best interest of the Organization

  6. Be Prepared • All of the organization must understand there may be a culture change • Establish Best Practice Process – Before a Tool • Do not automate poor process. Use automation of a function as an opportunity to leverage best practices and take a fresh look at how things are done today • Basic Project Management Training • Some organizations have people slated as a PM and they have had no formal training. These folks really perceive Clarity as administrative overhead...a burden – because they do not understand “why” some things should be done. It is good to talk about the process and concept of PM'ing outside of the tool...then show how the tool can "enable" the process. • Understand the Data You Want to Capture AND start with good data • Have an Idea of the Reporting You Want Out • Have Internal Resources (Support and SMEs) Ready to Go

  7. Effective Information Campaign • Be Aware of Change Management • Start with the easy functions to deploy that require little data maintenance. The most difficult function to deploy, in terms of change management, is resource management – do NOT do this first. • Create an Internal Marketing Campaign Before and During Implementation • Publish a Vision for Clarity’s Future • Establish Frequent Communication: Vision, Reminders, Success Stories

  8. Invest in Training / Mentoring • Hands-On Training is the BEST • What is left behind after training (Quick Reference Guides, Manuals, Presentations, CAPA) will not influence adoption – the time spent performing exercises with an instructor/mentor will. • Train Internal SMEs • Ensure you have internal SMEs that are invested in the tool and can spend the time needed to get people to embrace the automation • Synchronize Timing • In spite of all the training courses before deployment, resources do not have great retention. You must focus on training once the system goes live. Resources do not pay attention until it is real. • Frequent Workshops or In Person Mentoring • Spending 15-30 minutes with every user at their own computer showing them CA Clarity PPM features and functions will work miracles. • Accessibility of Answers • Readily available training material, guides, videos, etc.

  9. Engage the Users – Provide Real Value Maximized Value Process Improvements / Increased Maturity • Clarity Data Drives Decisions • Users Believe Clarity Helps them Perform Their Job • Executives Use Clarity Constantly • Disruption Free Releases/Upgrades Good Data Compliance (Accuracy & Completeness) Effective Data Analysis User Engagement (Team, RM/PM, Leadership) Low Value Perception • Driving User Engagement • User Interface – Easy to Navigate and Find Information • Infrastructure – Stable, Reliable, and Performs Well • Roadmap – Published Vision for Clarity Future • Education – Training and Mentoring – What, How, Why • Visibility – Many meaningful portlets/reports • Automation – Simplify Interactions to avoid wasted time • Process – Defined processes in line with Clarity configuration • Rapid Incrementalism – Frequent Upgrades/Releases • Problems that Cause Low Value Perception: • Spreadsheet Rich Environment Driving Decisions • Users See No Value in Clarity • Executives Never Log Into Clarity • Clarity is slow and upgrades are expensive/Painful

  10. Don’t be a Perfectionist • Don’t struggle with resolving every last detail when implementing. • Your process or setup may not be ideal at first, but remember 80% automation will save a great deal of time. • Go with the majority -- don’t worry about trying to please everyone. Focus your efforts on the 80% who are being supportive, the rest will conform in their own time or as local management demands. • Don’t build everyone’s ideal reports up front – develop a number of generic reports that can be downloaded and manipulated. (80% automation)

  11. Implement Functionality in Stride • Introduce only small bits of functionality, but do it quickly. • Be careful not to overwhelm people -- much of the struggle in implementing a PPM is initial perception. • Let users know you are not asking for much right away. Once implemented, you can add more functionality quickly. • Keep in touch with users as new things are implemented - taking sanity checks to let them know they are supported

  12. Monitor Performance • Implement Adoption Metrics • Establish a way up front that you will measure the success of the deployment. What data are you trying to drive, etc. • Template available from RegoXchange • MUST BE USED

  13. Organized and Simple • Menus • Make the Menu Reflect Your Process • Modify the General Page • ObjectScreens • Group Like Fields in Sections • Minimize the number of pages to update • Do not put data on 3 subpages where the user has to jump between multiple pages to see or edit the data they need to (unless they need to for security reasons) • Make Text Boxes Bigger • Make them large so that users do not have to scroll to see all of the data • One Click to Value

  14. Organized and Simple • Option 1: Menu by function • Option 2:

  15. Organized and Simple • Object Screens (v13 Cleaned Much Up) • Group Like Fields in Sections • Minimize the number of pages to update • Do not put data on 3 subpages where the user has to jump between multiple pages to see or edit the data they need to (unless they need to for security reasons) • Make Text Boxes Bigger • Make them large so that users do not have to scroll to see all of the data • Drop Downs • NEW ** Actions

  16. Quick Wins – User Interaction (Overview) • Add tabs related to “My” stuff • Remove portlets not needed • Add Communications portlet

  17. Quick Wins – User Interaction (Project) • Remove Subpages Not Used After Before

  18. Quick Wins – User Interaction (Project) Before After

  19. Get Rid of Unused Items • CA has TONs of stuff. Often overwhelming. Get rid of stuff. Do not be afraid. • Do not delete – just inactivate and remove • Removal examples: • Fields • Groups • Portlets

  20. Leverage Alerts • We want people to use Clarity to manage by exception • Email notifications • Late Timesheet • Late Status • Notify of Mixed booking • Exception portlets to tell them what they should do – use portlets to guide them • Late tasks • Mixed bookings • Unfilled roles

  21. Response Time • People relate response time to usability • “One Click to Value” = Response Time • Disney Example – SharePoint link • Ohio Example – icon on desktop • Mayo Example – reports on list • Clarity login • Slowed by any portlets on the general page (all tabs) – so be careful what is on the general page • Returning data in portlets = Response Time • No page should take more than 5 seconds • Improve performance of portlets • Limit # of portlets on the page

  22. Cool Reporting • Data must be meaningful • Have views that recognize the person logged in to provide relevant data • Group the portlets/views together within pages with multiple tabs all with the same types of portlets/views • Create dashboard pages with summary portlets • Use graphs as much as possible to convey points
