The next step is to execute the list of processes and
procedures. Responsibility for the execution of these procedures
is typically delegated by the project leader or empowered project
team member.
- Assign roles and responsibilities.
Define specific roles
and functions for different user types, depending on their skill set.
- Procure and provision resources.
Organizations typically have
policies in place to manage various requests. Requests for procuring
and provisioning resources through internal work orders must be done
to avoid project delays.
- Create a real or virtual Competency Center.
A Competency Center
is used to set the guidelines and standards for supporting the infrastructure
elements and WebFOCUS.
- Install and verify prerequisites.
Identifying and verifying
prerequisites before performing WebFOCUS installations is cost-effective
and saves time. For a list of prerequisites, see the table in Prerequisites.
