Agile Methodology

• The project was executed in an Agile Methodology to ensure quick wins and to break the complexity of the process into smaller chunks of work package.
• The agile approach involved iterative development and frequent feedback loops to build and improve the system incrementally.

Prototype and First Sprint

• The team started with creating a prototype of the referral system.
• The prototype was used in the first sprint to gather user feedback and identify areas for improvement.

Change Requests and Efficiency Enhancements:

•  Based on the feedback received during the first sprint, the team made necessary changes to enhance the system’s efficiency.
•  The agile methodology allowed for flexibility in responding to evolving user needs.

Power Platform Integration:

•  The team expanded the system beyond “Excel-minded” thinking by exploring the capabilities of the Power Platform.
•  This step enabled the system to achieve more advanced functionalities.

Referral System Implementation:

• The referral system was successfully implemented, allowing the organisation to keep track of inquiries, translate them into opportunities, and manage bookings, interventions, and operations.

Second Sprint with Dynamics 365 (D365):

• In the second sprint, the team integrated Dynamics 365 (D365) to further enhance the system’s capabilities.
• D365 was utilised for efficient tracking and management of inquiries and opportunities.

Consulting for Efficiency and Process Improvement:

•  A consulting phase was introduced to identify and address inefficiencies and redundancies in existing business processes.
•  The project team worked to optimise these processes and streamline operations.

Change Management:

• Recognising that a CRM system is not only a tool but also requires a change in mindset, change management efforts were initiated.
• Employees were educated on the potential of the CRM system and encouraged to adopt a new way of thinking to fully leverage its capabilities.

Microsoft’s Role:

• Microsoft’s CRM solution served as a pivotal tool in this project.
• Beyond being a tool, the project emphasised the need for a change in mentality and a shift towards a more innovative and efficient way of working.

Outcomes

• The successful implementation of the referral system streamlined the process of handling inquiries, opportunities, bookings, interventions, and operations.
• Keeping an agile methodology approach allowed for flexibility and adaptation to changing needs.
• The integration of the Power Platform and Dynamics 365 extended the system’s capabilities.
• Change management efforts were crucial in ensuring that employees embraced the new system and understood its potential.

This case study showcases the importance of combining the right technology with a change in mindset to drive efficiency and innovation within an organisation. Viewhealth and the project manager’s leadership and the agile approach played key roles in the project’s success.
