Last week, you assembled your core HIFIS 4 Implementation Project Team. But this team is not going to be operating in a vacuum. There are lots of other interested parties with a vested interest in the HIFIS 4 implementation.

This week is all about identifying stakeholders. We’re going to put together a list of our Partner Agencies and gather some information about them that we’re going to use next week. We’re also going to put together a HIFIS Advisory Group consisting of representatives from many of these Partner Agencies.

Before we make a list of our agencies, though, we really want to make sure we have a good idea about the project scope. What are the boundaries of our geographic area? Which Partner Agencies will or won't be part of our initial project launch? Will we need multiple launch dates?
