720 Worldwide Solution Overview
For this solution we gathered a team with extensive experience in learning systems. Our experts worked with the client’s utility and nuclear departments and delivered product upgrades and system consolidation during mergers.
We combined our own project management structure with SuccessFactors’s product implementation framework to help training organization implementations. In addition to that we defined a clear roadmap for newly acquired companies to use when integrating their current training components (courses, online contents, qualifications and learning history) into SuccessFactors LMS.
Currently, we are managing the transition of LMS to cloud, from the on-premise version.
Key phases on all our LMS related projects included:
- Planning and Assessment: Defined project plan for the Implementation phase. Activities included assessment of current state, development of project scope, schedule, resource allocation, risk and mitigation plan, project dependencies and assumptions, budget estimation.
- Design: Conducted functional configuration workshops, delta configuration workshops, connector workshops, conversion approach, integration workshops and report design.
