4. Develop an overall plan, including key milestones
• Breakdown into smaller sub-projects
• Prioritize the changes with large business impact
• Establish milestones, especially for handover to
Testing Team and for final deployment
Develop Specifications
• For all the impacted entities in the inventory, it is
critical to write down specification for
• The Transition Phase
• Steady State
• Mechanism of exception handling
Make changes to the products
• Implement and test the implementation as per
specifications at the individual product level.
Plan for and implement the changes
• Planning is critical due to the implications
and the number of entities involved.
• However, the changes themselves should
be simple enough.
