Monday, May 12 @ 1:30pm - Keeping Production Running During the Upgrade
Now that you’re about to implement new software how can you assure your management and users that the new software won’t impact productivity or compromise job deadlines? In this web cast we’ll examine these tricky questions from a CAD manager’s point of view.

We’ll begin by making sure that you pick the right “launch window” for your implementation to assure minimal conflicts. Next we’ll investigate some strategies for pausing implementations and how to isolate the risk of new software to minimize the possibility of productivity impact. To sum it up we’ll talk about the availability of outside resources to assist you with implementation in case job pressures start to become unmanageable. If you ever have to implement new software on a tight timeline while still having to support ongoing CAD work, you’ll gain valuable insights in this session.
