Challenge
This healthcare systems company needed to coordinate simultaneously with numerous hospital departments—clinical departments, nursing, pharmacy, and administration—during a large-scale EMR implementation. The system migration had to proceed without disrupting each department's operations, making meticulous scheduling essential.
Why Ganty
The performance that stays responsive even with large projects and the hierarchical task structure for department-level management were the deciding factors. Excel export and PDF output for easy sharing with non-IT stakeholders were also valued.
How They Use It
- Created hierarchical task groups for each hospital department
- Defined milestones for each phase of system migration
- Managed testing, training, and go-live schedules with dependencies
- Exported weekly progress reports from Ganty as PDFs for sharing
Results
Using Ganty, the EMR implementation was completed on schedule. Cross-department coordination effort was reduced by 40%, and thorough planning reduced post-launch issues by 75%, achieving a migration with minimal impact on clinical operations.
