About the Implementation

This chapter describes CA‑PanAPT implementation. System implementation is done in three phases:

For CA‑PanAPT, we suggest the following scenarios for the phases:

Phase One: System Familiarization

Goal: To exercise all of the CA‑PanAPT facilities so users can become familiar with the system.

Action: Exercise the entire CA‑PanAPT Production Turnover scenario using the supplied and unchanged CA‑PanAPT PDS model. Test the system with test libraries, members, and a limited number of users.

Phase Two: Pilot Project

Goal: To implement the first live user Library Code and live Move Request so users can understand and use models.

Action: Implement one Library Code using one set of actual user libraries. Use supplied CA‑PanAPT models, copy and modify slightly as necessary.

Phase Three: Ongoing Implementation

Goal: To continue the implementation process by repeating Phase Two for each additional set of libraries. To become independent and knowledgeable in system usage.

Action: Continue live implementation, one Library Code at a time, using actual user libraries. Use supplied CA‑PanAPT models, copy and modify as necessary.

Each of these three phases is a separate subject in this chapter.
