Abstract
The implementation of a young system can be a double-edged sword. It provides the opportunity to influence the development of the product, but at the same time requires patience while the new functionality is developed. This new functionality provides opportunities for moving to the next stage of the implementation process, but when an enhancement is not fully functional upon release it can cause a roadblock in streamlining workflows and meeting the project milestones.
When piloting, then implementing Leganto at Macquarie University we quickly learnt the evolving nature of this young system required adjustments to our plans and initial milestones. This presentation will discuss the agile and fluid nature of the Leganto implementation process and celebrate the milestones achieved and those yet to come.
