Implementation/Configuration

With years of expertise, HPS provides top-tier Oracle Primavera implementation and configuration services. Trust our seasoned professionals to optimise your setup for success. Our approach to implementing and configuring a solution for our clients follows our typical process. This is a method of working collaboratively with our clients to understand their desires for the “to be environment” and combining this with our recommendations of best practice. Below we detail our typical delivery process.

Overview – HPS project delivery process

After mobilisation and the development of the project plan, we will as a joint project team share in the discovery of your requirements, your process and your vision.

We will then take this information and design and architecture a solution and get your signoff before we configure through a series of interactive and agile development processes.

We will jointly test the solution ready for deployment. Once tested we will implement the integrations, have access to your clean migrated data before we conduct a dry run Go Live. When successful we will deploy in Production.

During the project we follow our standard delivery approach which is shown in the diagram below. Any post “go live” changes and minor enhancements follow this same process:

To explain our approach:

Discover

Collect relevant documentation including best practice from across the organisation and associated professional bodies like the PMI and APM to help inform the team. Facilitate Agile workshops to better understand the client’s requirements, share our experience of how the Oracle tools could address client problems through interactive sessions, which raised client maturity across the subject matter.

Design

Facilitate joint team workshops to deliver end-to-end solution architecture and design by leading the technical and functional design sessions. Lead Agile technical and functional design workshops, first documenting high level design options, then detailed business process designs that would eventually be configured in the Primavera tools.

Build / Configure

Configure, migrate legacy data, integrate, report, test, train-the-trainer and handover to our support team. Provide up to date architectural, technical, functional, test and service migration documentation. Encourage our client to set up joint teams to deal with issues as we find these accelerate issues solution, options analysis and eventual resolution.
Configure the Primavera solution in an Agile and iterative way that supports continuous improvement and refinement of the solution, updating design specifications and as-built documents in parallel.
We will create or update existing documentation, to ensure there is a solid record of your environment to support your solution into the future.

Test

Assist users in developing use cases for unit, system and integration testing and finally supporting User Acceptance Testing (UAT).

Deploy & Train

In addition to roll-out / cutover activities and Early Life Support, we will undertake training needs analyses, design and document train-the-trainer course material for both end user, administrator and support personnel training
