Implementation Plan Template

1. Purpose
The purpose of the Implementation Plan is to identify the implementation steps and communication
strategies for new or amended Policies or Procedures.

2. Inclusions
The Implementation Plan includes:

(a) Implementation tasks


o Identification of any implementation issues, such as:
 Barriers to acceptance
 Contingency plans to offset any difficulties that may arise
 Whether implementation could unwittingly marginalise any groups, such as
culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) people or people with a disability.
o A communication plan including targeted communication, such as:
 Key stakeholder briefings or emails (in particular those with delegated powers
under the Policy);
 Global emails or alerts;
 Development of written material/posters/FAQs/intranet sites.
o Any staff development (training) requirements, such as:
 Guidelines;
 Training or information sessions (nb if you produce training modules through VU
Develop, you must include these in the Implementation Plan and ensure content is
kept up to date);
 Online support, or updating of online support material;
 One on one mentoring.
o Any administrative changes;
o Any system constraints or changes required;
o Any related Policy, Procedure or internal Guidelines which require updating;
o Any additional costs/resources required to implement the Policy or Procedure;
o Monitoring and measuring implementation and effectiveness of Policy or Procedure,
such as detailing:
 Checkpoints to monitor implementation success and effectiveness over time (e.g.
changes in behaviour/business processes/compliance)

(b) Action Steps


o The actions that will address implementation tasks.

(c) Responsibility
o The persons responsible for implementing each of the action steps.

(d) Timelines
o The proposed timelines for completing each of the action steps.

Tip – Use the Plan as an iterative tool during the drafting process and remove any tasks and actions
that are not feasible at a later stage.
