Clients

◦ To ensure they can properly interact with the system

IT Staff

◦ To ensure all technical and program functions are working properly

Management

All transactions should be testes

◦ Extract deductions

◦ Transfer Funds

◦ Apply Deductions

Focus on

◦ Security

Testing should be done throughout project development

More thorough testing should be performed near the end of development

Should continue for a short period after implementation to remove any missed errors

What is your overall opinion of the new ESIP system?

Do you see any advantages the new system has when compared to the old? Disadvantages?

Has the new system made your job easier, harder, or had no impact? How so?

Does the new system lack in any areas that you have noticed?

More risk than other changeover methods

Detecting minor errors is more difficult

Cannot revert to the old system as a back-up

Parallel Operation

◦ Old and new systems operate full for a specified period

◦ Data input into both systems, output is compared between systems

◦ When clients, management, and IT are satisfied that the new system operates correctly, the old system is terminated

Pilot Operation◦ Implement the complete new system at a

selected location of the company◦ The group that uses the new system first is

called the pilot site◦ The old system continues to operate for the

entire organization, including pilot site◦ After the system proves successful at the

pilot site, it is implemented in the rest of the organization it is implemented in the rest of the organization.

Pilot operation◦ Best way to guard against total system failure

◦ Less risky than Changeover

◦ Allows for more accurate post implementation testing
