Develop Model Implementation PlanThe Charter
$Formally Recognizes the Existence of the Project$Objective
$What You Intend to Accomplish$Background
$Why It Needs to Be Done$Approach
$How to Accomplish the Objective$Expected Duration
$When Will the Project Be Done$Organizational Scope
$Who Are the Stakeholders
Develop Model Implementation PlanDeliverables and Tasks
$Deliverables$Product of a Task Being Completed$Some Deliverables may be Considered
Milestones$Examples
$Charter$Email Stating Test Results are Valid$Briefing Package for NCEP Director
$Tasks$Actions Performed to Create a Deliverable$Steps Needed to Complete the Project
Develop Model Implementation PlanRoles and Responsibilities and Schedule
$Roles and Responsibilities$Defines who is Responsible for Each Task$Same Person Responsible for Task and
Deliverable$Schedule
$Time Estimated for Each Task$Dependencies Among Tasks Considered$Level of Risk Assessed for Each Task$Schedule Created Based on Estimates,
Dependencies and Risks
Develop Model Implementation PlanList of Subjective Verification Participants
$Create Letter Asking for Participation in Evaluation$Describes Proposed Change
$Asks for Intent to Participate in Subjective Verification$Defines Participant=s Responsibilities

Summary of the Model Implementation Process
$Every Implementation Should Have Components of Planning, Test and Evaluation, Review and
Implementation$The Level of Rigor Applied Depends On the Cost,
Risk and Political Implications to the Organization$Simple Technical Implementations May Have
Complex Scientific Implications$Simple or Non-Scientific Changes May Have
Complex Customer Impact and Technical Implications
