For daily and quick questions back and forth between parties, Zavanti like to set up a migration specific Teams group chat. Any larger issues can be sent via email but for speed and ease the teams group chat is very useful.
Zavanti recommend regular weekly or fortnightly calls between key stakeholders in the process. These have been very productive and can be used to flesh out more complex issues that require multiple people’s insight. But also, for simple progress updates and revisions of timelines.
Timeline projections for migrations dress rehearsals can vary between CHPs but most initial runs will take more than 40 days from templates being populated to data acceptance testing finishing. Each following run reduces in length but the biggest factor in reducing the time of each process is the staffing resources allocated to each aspect of the process.
