Identify business needs:
1. Discuss alternatives: Draw on partner expertise that can help explore a different mobile approach to suit business needs and enable the workforce.
2. Negotiations and RFPs: Conduct a formal RFP process with different vendors and choose the best-suited option.
3. Mobile line transition: Mobile lines are migrated and aligned with chosen packages. Ensure the correct numbers and employees are mapped. Identify SIMS that have not yet reached their termination date.
4. Implementation: Ensure the correct SIMS and devices are delivered to the right employees. Keep track of old devices that need to be returned.
Why change management is essential:
5. Hold user group meetings with employees across different branches.
6. Send all documentation to employees early.
7. Ensure that users are clear on the new policy being implemented.
8. If your employees are frequent travellers, make sure they are aware of the activation process for their new roaming partner.
9. Communicate new billing models to users where applicable.
10. Mobile administrators must be trained around new vendor processes.
