Strategic Planning
• Creative and interactive ongoing
process to determine what an
organization wants to be in the
future and how it will get there.
• Development of a comprehensive
long-range plan for guiding the
activities and operations of an
organization.
IS 531 : Lecture 3
4
Strategic Planning Process
•
•
•
•
•
Define the corporate vision and mission.
Specify achievable goals and objectives.
Develop strategies.
Set policy guidelines.
Determine products, services, and
markets.
• (Supporting technology must be factored
into the strategic plan.)
IS 531 : Lecture 3
5
The Mission
• Purpose for the organization’s existence
• Represents fundamental and unique
aspirations that make the organization
different from others: who we are,
what we do
• Guides the planning process
• All sub-units should be focused on the
organization’s mission and how they
contribute toward accomplishments.
IS 531 : Lecture 3
6
Scope of the Mission
• Defines the type of activities and
services that will be performed
• Should be clearly identified (detailed)
to help employees and customers
understand the priorities of the
organization
• Serves as basis for development of
certain goals and objectives
IS 531 : Lecture 3
7
Vision
• A future view of what an organization
would like to become
– Be the hospital of choice in the region
– Be national recognized as a best
research center in the field
– Etc…
IS 531 : Lecture 3
8
Goals and Objectives
• Goal—explains how the mission will be
realized ; describes what is to be
accomplished
• Objectives—specify how and when
goals will be met
IS 531 : Lecture 3
9
Strategy
• Strategy is a comprehensive plan that
states how its mission, goals, and
objectives will be achieved.
• Understanding the endpoint (mission,
goals, and objectives) is critical to the
development of the plan.
IS 531 : Lecture 3
10
Strategic Planning
• Led by upper management
• Requires participation by middle managers
• Lower-level managers are responsible for
supporting the planning process by
providing information and insight
IS 531 : Lecture 3
11
Strategic Planning
• Chief Executive Officer( CEO)
• Chief Information Officer (CIO) helps
management see the role of IT in meeting
goals
• Chief Financial Officer (CFO) looks at
costs/benefits
• Chief Medical Informatics Officer (CMIO)
• Chief Nursing Informatics Officer (CNIO)
• Chief Strategy Officer (CSO) oversees the
detailed plan

IS 531 : Lecture 3
15
Strategic Planning in
Healthcare Informatics
• Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities,
Threats (SWOT) analysis
• Determine available options
• Provide directions for all IT initiatives,
establish priorities, eliminate all
duplications, ensure the wise use of IT
resources
IS 531 : Lecture 3
16
Planning for HIS
• Realize need for change.
• Prioritize requirements.
• Develop a master plan that fits into the
organization’s plan.
• Review/revise plan periodically to keep
up with changing needs.
• Identify project
champion/manager/teams.
IS 531 : Lecture 3
17
Planning for
IT in HIS
• Does technology support business and
clinical decisions?
• Is technology used effectively?
• Does technology enhance the image?
• Does technology promote safety?
• Are market and regulatory
requirements met?
IS 531 : Lecture 3
18
Stakeholders in
Strategic Planning
• Any group or individual who can affect
or is affected by the achievement of the
organization’s objectives
• Have a direct or indirect stake in the
organization mission, scope, goals
• Internal as well as external parties
• Should play role or interest being
considered when identifying strategic
planning teams
IS 531 : Lecture 3
19
Strategic IT Planning Process
• Identification of Goals and Scopes
• Gathering Data from External and
Internal Environments
• Data Analysis
• Identification of Potential Solutions.
• Select a Course of Action.
• Implement the Chosen Solution.
• Ongoing Evaluation and Feedback.
IS 531 : Lecture 3
20
Identification of Goals and Scopes
• Goals must meet user needs and support
organization missions/goals
• Identified goals provide direction for HIS
development process
• Scope sets the boundary for the project: what
to be done within current limitations in time,
resources.
IS 531 : Lecture 3
21
Gathering Data from
Internal and External Environments
• Define current situation
• Identify areas of need
• Consider current trends in healthcare and
information technology
• Scan internal and external environment for
opportunities and how to comply with new
directives
IS 531 : Lecture 3
22
Data Analysis
• Analyze current trends: industry practices, IT
supports
• Determine how the organization fit in
• Assess organization’s assets allocated to the
project: technical, financial, time, and
resources
IS 531 : Lecture 3
23
Identification of Potential Solutions
• Identify ALL potential IT solutions/alternatives
• Analyze, score, rank potential solutions in
terms of technical, operational, economic,
schedule, and risk (Ref. TOESR in Lec.2 § 47)
• Remember to take into account other systems
and legacy systems (potential ripple effects)
IS 531 : Lecture 3
24
* Potential IT Solutions *
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Compliance with standards? Regulations?
Does it use open architecture?
What advantages are offered?
Support for PDAs? Other mobile devices?
User friendly?
Capability for expansion?
Report capability?
IS 531 : Lecture 3
25
* Feasibility Analysis *
• Technical feasibility is a measure of the practicality of a
specific technical solution and the availability of technical
resources and expertise.
• Operational feasibility is a measure of how well the
solution will work in the organization. It is also a measure
of how people feel about the system/project.
• Economic feasibility is a measure of the costeffectiveness of a project or solution.
• Schedule feasibility is a measure of how reasonable the
project timetable is.
• Risk feasibility – What is the probability of a successful
implementation using the technology and approach?
(Risk Management)
IS 531 : Lecture 2
26
Selecting a Course of Action
• Select the alternative with highest weighted
score from TOESR Analysis
• In-house development (Build) vs. Outsourcing
(Buy)
IS 531 : Lecture 3
27
Implementation
• Develop a timeline for implementation /
conversion: parallel, direct, phased, pilot
(Ref. Lec.2 § 64)
IS 531 : Lecture 3
28
* System Conversion *
IS 531 : Lecture 2
29
Ongoing Evaluation and Feedback
• Frequently evaluate current system against
current and future needs for improvements
• Due to limited resources, some initial
requirements are put in backlog but outcome
these processes still affect the new system
• Dynamic changing healthcare environment:
new directions, new practices, new
information technologies
IS 531 : Lecture 3
30
* Benchmarking *
• Measure organizational as well as functional
services and practices against those from top
competitors in the industry
• If the current HIS doesn’t support well new
needs, start a new systems development cycle

professional
• Have knowledge on health /nursing
sciences informatics and information
technologies
• Participate in design, selection, and
implementation of heath information
systems
• (Role of Business System Analyst)
