AUDMP Information and Networking Strategy

12. Where to Focus First

Taken together, the analysis above covers a wide area and a range of activities. Clearly some prioritization is essential. Although the relative importance of these activities will not become fully clear before most of the project sites have been visited, and these issues discussed, it is possible to pick out some of the activities that should be given close and early attention. Priority ratings have been attached to most of the suggested activities. In general, in approaching the implementation of information systems as a whole, the following activities need to be done early:

  • Build up a more detailed picture of country and city-level needs
  • Ensure that the key decision makers can communicate effectively
  • Develop project introductions and briefing material
  • Develop Project Launch packs for technical staff
  • Establish a simple storage system for mailed update material to encourage users to keep it together.
  • Collate information resource guides, FAQs and FEPs in each major subject
