2) Design Core Policy 1) Conceptual Analysis 3) Implementation 4) Performance Evaluation What do we need?
Lessons Learned • Conceptual Design is a must to achieve the intended goals • Don’t proceed without a well defined project plan • High calibers / Precise Job Tasks / Salary Structures are essential factors • Estimated operational costs should be considered • Business Continuity Plan should be enforced
