Sequencing modernization work orders initiatives against modernization outcomes while balancing active projects, delivery commitments, timing, and the risks of replanning. section 16.3.3
Use a pragmatic prioritization process:
- Start with the modernization strategy and ask whether current initiatives contribute to the highest-value outcomes. section 16.3.3
- Adjust the ideal order when a quicker win, a product-roadmap deliverable, or lower delivery risk makes another initiative the better next step. section 16.3.3
- Track initiatives centrally, recording each subdomain, modernization approach, and priority through a spreadsheet or comparable register. section 16.3.3
A modernization initiative register
A simple spreadsheet lists each subdomain as a row, with columns for the selected approach—such as lift and shift or total modernization—and a high, medium, low, or numeric priority. section 16.3.3
