Project Description
· This role is essential to translate strategy into a fully defined implementation plan, cost model, and staffing model prior to Epic engagement.

Required Years of Experience
· Minimum: 10–12 years healthcare IT
· Preferred: 12–15+ years
Leadership requirement:
· At least 5–8 years leading large-scale implementations or programs
Experience at:
· Program Director
· Senior Engagement Manager
· Transformation Lead
Required Core Experience
· Epic Implementation Experience (critical)
· Direct experience with:
· Epic implementations (multi-hospital strongly preferred)
· Experience in at least one of:
Community Connect
Enterprise rollout
Large-scale module expansion
Implementation Planning & Scope Definition
· Built:
Implementation roadmaps (not just executed them)
· Defined:
Scope, timeline, and sequencing
· Experience translating:
Requirements → build plan
· Cost Modeling
· Experience developing:
Full lifecycle cost models
· Must include:
Implementation AND non-implementation costs
· Ability to identify:
What vendors (like Epic) do NOT include
Staffing Model Development
· Built staffing models for:

· Determine module scope (e.g., Wisdom, Cupid, Rehab, LTC, etc.)
· Build comprehensive cost model, including:
· Epic costs
· NON-Epic costs (go-live support, service desk, infrastructure, integration)
· Develop staffing model across all phases:
· Pre-implementation
· Implementation
· Go-live support
· Post-go-live sustainment
Define:
· Implementation waves and sequencing
· Infrastructure readiness (Citrix/VDI, ServiceNow, integration)
