01 / The handoverThe project is finished.
The change has to live somewhere.
The team has a signed procedure, training attendance records and a system that works. Those tell you what was delivered.
Now follow one task into the receiving organization.
Ask thisWhat is now available?
02 / The everyday workCan people use it when the project team is no longer in the room?
Watch someone complete the task. Can they use the new process, or do they still need the old spreadsheet to get through it?
This is where adoption becomes visible: in what people actually do.
Ask thisWhat do people do differently?
03 / The reason for changingA changed habit still has to produce a useful result.
Perhaps the new way is being used. Does it reduce errors, improve the service or make the work easier? If it adds effort, is the benefit worth it?
Return to the reason for the change. Compare what you expected with what is happening.
