University of Phoenix Abstract

This paper discusses the implementation phase of the Communications Assets Project (CAP) Software Configuration Management (SCM). CAP is an interoperable communications inventory software package. The project manager for CAP has asked for an analysis for software configuration management. This paper includes the six major activities: coding, testing, installation, documentation, training and support. This document is a discussion on the transition from the design phase to the implementation phase. Implementation

The server will require allocated and reallocated memory during processing. Should out of memory errors occur, the design will have to be reviewed and additional memory allocated to the servers and clients.
Installation
During the installation phase of implementation, SKM proposes using a parallel implementation. Initially, SKM proposes using a prototype of the system and having 6 key personnel use the system from their desktops. Once these personnel are familiar with the system and are comfortable with it, SKM will introduce a train-the trainer program which will enable these key personnel to return to the workforce and train other employees in their areas. The new system will be run in parallel with the old manual system. Running the systems in parallel is expected to have no impact on the development of CAP. CAP 's IT team will install the hardware on the network during a weekend and run tests on the systems to make sure they are up and running. Should the IT team encounter any problems, it will return the following weekend. SKM has allocated funding should it be required.
Documentation
During the implementation phase, several documents will be produced to help in the maintenance and support of the system. These documents will be used by CAP 's IT team. During testing, user manuals and operational manuals were produced that will help all personnel use the system. During this time, training manuals will be produced separately from the
