| A partnership between the CalATERS project team and your
department will ensure a successful implementation and rollout of CalATERS.
The CalATERS project team includes Implementation Consultants, Systems
Analysts, and Trainers who will provide assistance to your department
during and after implementation. Learn more about the CalATERS
Project Team.
Executive Sponsor
Successful implementation and rollout of CalATERS requires a
commitment from department executive staff. Departments must obtain
executive approval, and an executive sponsor must be identified prior
to the start of implementation. Executive sponsors are high-level department
managers who are committed to the successful implementation of CalATERS.
Executive sponsors are responsible for providing overall project direction,
and for ensuring that department resources are assigned to complete
the various implementation tasks.
Department Accounting Office
Successful implementation and rollout of CalATERS also requires
commitment and support from department accounting office staff. The
department accounting office assumes the lead role during implementation.
They are responsible for assessing the procedural changes that will
occur as a result of implementation and for developing a plan to address
the changes. It is important that department accounting offices have
sufficient resources identified prior to implementing. Learn more about
Department Implementation Roles.
