Toteutusjaksoa

Toteutusjakso, in Finnish project management, refers to the phase of a project during which the planned solution is realized and prepared for use. It follows the suunnittelu (planning) phase and precedes the käyttöönottaminen or operational use. The scope typically includes development or configuration, hardware installation, system integration, data migration, testing, training, and change management.

The toteutusjakso is commonly used in information technology, construction, and public sector projects. In IT, it covers software development or customization, integration with existing systems, deployment, and initial user support. In public procurement and construction, the phase encompasses procurement activities, vendor coordination, installation, commissioning, and the preparation of go-live conditions.

Deliverables produced during the toteutusjakso often include a deployment plan, installation and configuration manuals, test plans and reports, data migration results, user training materials, a cutover or go-live plan, and an updated risk and issue log. Quality assurance activities, progress reporting, and adherence to milestones are important governance elements in this phase.

Key success factors include clear scope and requirements, effective change management, adequate testing and data migration, stakeholder engagement, and strong coordination among developers, suppliers, and users. Typical risks involve scope creep, delays in supplier delivery, data compatibility problems, insufficient training, and resistance to change.

Overall, the toteutusjakso represents the active build and deployment period of a project, bridging planning and operation by delivering a functioning solution ready for use.
