AIM Implementation Management Methodology

AIMasters are highly experienced individuals who are the “black belts” of AIM. To reach the elite AIMaster status, individuals must:

• Complete formal learning through Accreditation
• Have experience applying AIM to internal projects and initiatives
• Demonstrate competent performance in developing specific AIM deliverables, under the guidance of an IMA consultant

AIMasters can be leveraged across the enterprise in two ways:

• To serve as mentors for others on critical initiatives

• To ensure implementation success when they are active team members

Organizations that develop a cadre of AIMasters can expect to accelerate results, achieve intended ROI, and meet all initiative objectives on time and on budget – creating competitive advantage.

Individuals who have completed the formal pre-requisites and who have had experience applying AIM to organizational initiatives may choose to become AIMasters.

Pre-Requisites

• Completion of either the Introduction to AIM program or a Project Workshop Accreditation
• Rights to Use or Rights to Reproduce License

Becoming an AIMaster

1. Future AIMasters are given a Performance Checklist detailing AIMaster requirements.
2. Select performances require observation by an IMA consultant; others are deliverables that must be reviewed and approved by an IMA consultant before receiving sign-off.

Benefits to Organization

1. Provides internal expertise in AIM that can be leveraged on business critical initiatives across the enterprise

2. Enables broader application of AIM, accelerating Return on Investment and accomplishment of all project objectives

3. Develops a core of experts that can serve as mentors to less-experienced AIM users

4. Limits external dependency, pushing expertise out from IMA to the enterprise
