Expertise
maxIT’s
McKesson Practice is comprised
of dedicated and experienced
IT consultants focused on
successful implementation,
upgrades, and optimization
of advanced McKesson systems.
maxIT is a preferred McKesson
Consulting Partner, and
we currently support multiple
software platforms. maxIT’s
implementation model complements
and aligns with McKesson’s
implementation approach
and methodology. We support
this approach and work in
partnership with our clients
to ensure continuity in
build, minimum scope creep,
and on time activation.
Our
McKesson implementation
consultants have provided
major enhancements to
business and clinical
electronic capabilities,
as well as providing an
integrated Electronic
Health Record (EHR) across
a hospital system enterprise.
maxIT’s flexible business
model allows us to provide
solutions and services
of all sizes and complexities
to McKesson clients. We
leverage our people, tools
and methodologies at all
points in the project
life cycle. We have the
ability to work on one
component (e.g. Roadmap),
or can work on projects
from Strategy, Roadmap,
Design through Activation
and Optimization. maxIT
has a proven track record
of helping providers adopt
change and achieve tangible
results with their implementation
projects.
Strategy:
maxIT
works with your organization
to clearly define where
you are, where you want
to go, the benefits you
want to achieve and the
way to get there – with
full clinician acceptance
and realization of predefined
benefits.

IT Strategy process may
include:
Requirements

Roadmap:
maxIT
helps your organization
define the process for ensuring
success of your project
by defining a clear roadmap.
This process determines
your project governance,
reviews current work flows
and develops future state
work flows in support of
your project’s goals.
The roadmap also specifies
the plans for risk mitigation,
staffing and budgeting,
communication, testing,
training, activation and
support.
Activities
/ Deliverables from our
Roadmap process may include:
Project
Charter / Scope /
Governance / Roles
and Responsibilities
Project

and Change Control
Process
maxIT
works with your organization
and McKesson to ensure that
the design agreed upon today
is documented and validated.
This will prevent rework
and second guessing, but
is also the root of subsequent
activities and deliverables
such as Testing and Training.
We leverage work already
performed and grow it into
a much fuller solution to
meet your evolving requirements.
We don’t work in silos
and re-create work that
has already been completed.

Build:
maxIT
collaborates with your Project
Team to accelerate the
build process by providing
the information your team
needs to make informed decisions,
to understand integrated
implications, and to leverage
the McKesson model to fullest
extent possible. Our integrated
approach avoids the ‘spinning’
that occurs between teams
and introduces total transparency
to guide the efforts.
Activities

Build process may include:

Validate:
The hard work performed earlier pays off in the Validation phase when testing is synched with design and build, and organization change meets work flow redesign. We are not only validating that the system is operating as expected, but also that the work flows and roles are in synch and all pieces fit together. When in doubt, we know why decisions were made and can better understand the implications of change.

Validate process may include:

Activate:
Go Live and Cutover Planning in the early phases of the project have outlined the strategy and approach for Activation: Will dress rehearsals be used? What Communications are occurring? How will Cutover occur and what fallback plans are in place? By the time you get to Activate, you’re well on your way through the Activation project plan and all teams have a common understanding, shared milestones, and joint activities.
