Implementation Specialist

About the role

The Implementation Specialist serves as the project owner throughout the implementation lifecycle and is responsible for developing and managing project plans, milestones, timelines, dependencies, risks, action items, and stakeholder communication from kickoff through successful go-live and project closure. The role requires the ability to independently manage multiple concurrent customer implementations with competing priorities while maintaining clear accountability for project progress and outcomes.

The process of leading the client through the steps of implementation includes gathering information about the client’s business to defining the configuration needs of the client so that the support team can successfully deliver the implementation. This includes defining a successful implementation schedule with the client and ensuring Studycast resources are available to meet this schedule.

The Implementation Specialist proactively identifies risks or dependencies that may impact the project schedule, develop appropriate mitigation plans, and elevate issues early when additional support or decisions are required. Additionally, this position is responsible for acting as client liaison for interface projects and working with the CoreHL7 technical lead.
