If awarded, how will your EMS System assure that all grant proposal tasks and deliverables will be completed in the January 1, 2008 through September 30, 2008 timeline? Hiring for the implementation team member will begin upon notification of the award from NC OEMS. This will include development of the work plan for the position as well as the initial steps of hiring the candidate such as advertisement of the position and recruitment of candidates. ZOLL System implementation will span the end of the calendar year into the ', beginning of 2008 allowing the new implementation team member to seamlessly integrate into the ongoing process. ', January 2008: At this point, the new team member will produce the first set of EMS Toolkit Grant deliverables: the 5 written ', EMS System policies (Dispatch Center Time, EMS Wheels Rolling (Chute Time), EMS Turn Around Time, Vehicle ', Maintenance and EMS Documentation and Data Completion). This will be done independently of any other requirements or', implementation processes. When these are complete they will be forwarded to the EMSPIC for review and feedback as well as to distribute to other systems. j During Spring of 2008 we will begin to collect data as well as to intensively focus on the data collection around the 5 Toolkit policies to assure completeness and accuracy of data inputs as well as transmission into PreMIS. This will include repeatedly running Response Time Toolkits and comparing and contrasting against the ZOLL data reports to isolate and fix discrepancies. In addition, data input training will be ongoing during this phase. The second major deliverable will be 100% training for all EMS line and supervisory staff by May 1, 2008. This will represent roughly 50% of the project period but will represent 2/3 of the deliverables. The final deliverable will be an expanded set of reports and the "system dashboard" based on lessons learned in the process of developing, implementing, training and monitoring the 5 initial EMS Toolkit Grant Policies. This will include a set of reports that we can share with the EMSPIC for interested parties. i The key to assuring that deliverables are created within the project performance period is limit the new team members responsibility to the project and eliminate utilization of the team member to other ongoing projects and maintaining focused ':. effort. In order to maintain focus on the project, the new team member will report weekly to the EMS Operations Supervisor on progress and training compliance, Response Toolkit accuracy and other key indicators of project success. In addition, a j master project schedule will be created and monitored for the new team member by the EMS Operations Supervisor. April 1, 2008 -September 30, 2008: Begin six month monitoring period of policies. Run and evaluate new Response Toolkit to evaluate progress or need for further improvement. Page 7 of 15
