C.  Document Current Procedures:

• 2 to 3 weeks of Project Team effort

• Identify and document your current standard operating procedures.
  
• This documentation process provides a clearly defined starting point from which to evaluate how well suited the software's functionality is with your current business practices.
  
• This documentation provides the foundation for drafting new "proposed" procedures as a result of the system implementation (Phase 4 - Step A), preparing Pilot Scripts (Phase 4 - Step D) and finalizing "new" procedures in PowerBench II (Phase 7 - Step B).
• Organize documentation by module and assign responsibility to each Module Owner
• Module Owners are responsible for completion of their documentation prior to the start of their module's formal education class (Phase 3).
