Important Notes for filling out spreadsheet:

(1) You must indicate the Project Name and also the main Change Record in the heading of the Implementation Plan.

(2) Please number your steps in increments of 10 to allow for the insertion of additional steps if needed during revisions.

(3) Use the TIME column for those activities with critical execution times. It can be left blank for line items that are not time specific within a day

(4) Please include the Change Record number or response letter for all references.

(5) All implementation plans must have at least one reference to a 'Go - No Go' decision that would require a backout plan to be run. That plan needs to be included.

(6) Please include contact info on the 2nd sheet for those people with tasks assigned to them.

(7) A backout plan is required for all implementations.
