Defining Success
What does Success look like? End Users Are Using The ELN End Users Stop Using Their Paper
Notebook End Users Are Confident In Training And
Support Mechanisms Managers And End Users Are Able To
Access Information Collaboratively External Influence – work with the vendor
How Can Success be Obtained Early?
Define The Functionality To Include In An
ELN Deployment Develop A Common Solution Ensure Leadership Buy-In (Sponsorship) Ensure Early Adopters Champion Provide Collaborative Space Communicate Early And Often Get Rid Of The Paper Notebook
• ELN Visual Workflow
• My Open experiments,
• My Favorite experiments
• Experiments for review from the eLN Navigation screen
• Identifying experimental products & materials with unique ids
• Experimental write ups
• Recording materials and equipment
• File attachments and journaling
• Routing experiments for review
• Experimental searching
6
Functionality That Was Included in ELN Deployment
Define a Training Plan and schedule Used Applied Implementation Methodology concepts Run an Early Adopter program Define application Support needs before rollout Hardware (Laptop/PC/Tablet assessment, maintenance and servicing) Persuade People Managers to buy-in to the standard ELN and provide technically
savvy Super Users with a minimum 20% time commitment Senior Management to give endorsement at Town Hall and through email
communication (FEB2012)

The Action Plan
• Acknowledgments • Obtaining Success Early
• Empowering Embedded Super Users
– Knowledge Frame Work – Support Framework
• Culture 1: Accepting the change and owning the limitations • Culture 2: Learning to Share and Embracing a New World • How do you know it worked? A case study ELN v2.0 implementation • Supporting Our Future

Topics for Discussion
ELN SuperUser
1. First Train Class-room Development Account Quick Start Guide Manual
2. Infuse Knowledge Serve as an eLN Super User for my group.
Train the users to use the eLN Use the eLN and be an example to all my colleagues Assist users with general use of the eLN. Provide feedback to eLN team on my groups needs concerns and opinions regarding eLN
3. Take Action Provide Presentation Provide Narrative
9
The ‘FIT’ Model
Use
ELN
Technically
Savvy
Individual
The Training model Process was developed such that users could begin
using the system right after they were trained Utilize the Train-the-Trainer concept
• Train Super Users to train their own workgroups and act as front line support 1. Workshop designed to teach the delivery of the training
material 2. Set the Expectations
10
Infusing With Knowledge
ELN Super Users
ELN End User
ELN Super User
ELN Support
Lead
Regular knowledge transfer sessions • Project team to the Support team
Define path for communication to End Users
• Weekly Super User Meetings • Issues • Demonstrate features
• Email distribution Lists • Issues • Features “Training Spotlight”
• SharePoint Issue and Enhancement Trackers
Clearly define and communicate the escalation process • Builds trust • Builds confidence • Admit the human element- the learning curve
11
Take Action
• Acknowledgments • Obtaining success early • Empowering Embedded Super Users
• Culture 1: Accepting The Change and Owning The Limitations
– Acceptance and Limitations – Set-Up for Success
• Culture 2: Learning to Share and Embracing a New World
• How Do You Know It Worked? A Case Study ELN v2.0 Implementation
• Supporting Our Future

Topics for Discussion
Imagine asking someone to:
…post all their work online …write with their opposite hand …let go of their life’s work
Then contemplate:
Opening a paper notebook vs. logging on to a computer
Typing when you prefer to write
The learning curve
All the priority project work that must get done
The success/failure of other software implementations at your company
13
ELN Pushes Some Limits of Acceptance
In preparation for this cultural change the following rules were applied: Rule 1: End Users know what is coming and WHY it is coming Rule 2: End Users know when they will be trained Rule 3: End Users know when they are expected to start using the tool Rule 4: End Users know their leadership expects a learning curve Rule 5: End users know if they have a problem there is someone to contact

Set-up For Success
• Acknowledgments • Obtaining Success Early • Empowering Embedded Super Users • Culture 1: Accepting The Change and Owning The Limitations
• Culture 2: Learning to Share and Embracing a New World
– Ownership Feelings – Define ELN Collaboration and Etiquette
• Effective and Sustainable base – Work Request Management System to begin Pilot efforts Q2 2013
15
Topics for Discussion
Paper Notebooks
• Sense of privacy and control
• Locked in drawers
• Signed out to an individual
• Sense in ‘Draft’ until reviewed
16
Ownership Feelings
Electronic Laboratory Notebooks
• Viewed by any user
• Editable by any users
• Available by searching
• Drafts are available for view
Although an eLN replaces the paper notebook it provides so much more and we are
stretched to live in a new open paradigm.
• It is most important for end users to know others are hearing the rules
• Using our manners: • When interpreting data engage the author
• Cite other authors in reports and presentations
• Don’t change other’s experiments unless you have discussed it with them
• Engage your colleagues as partners
• The software will not babysit your actions
• Be courteous and respectful

Define ELN Collaboration and Etiquette
Vanderlaan, M. (2010, September). Are you Ready for the First Change in Writing up Experiments in over 2500 Years?. Speech presented at Marriott Hotel, Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
• Obtaining Success Early • Empowering Embedded Super Users • Culture 1: Accepting The Change and Owning The Limitations • Culture 2: Learning to Share and Embracing a New World
• How Do You Know It Worked? A Case Study ELN v2.0 Implementation
– ELN v2.0 Release
• Supporting Our Future
18
Topics for Discussion
Expected Bug fixes • Ability to Print a Document Workbook Without Error • Ability to Remove Attachment And Edit Experiment Without Creating
Boolean Error if The Experiment Was Not Saved • Et. al.
Expected Enhancements • Searching in Document Workbooks • Renaming and Reordering Document Workbook and Workbook Tabs • Audit Reason Applied to Document Workbook • Right-Click And Save As Attachments • Et. al.
Rule 1: End Users know what is coming and why it is coming

An Issue
What happened? Test Script found an issue with our work request system and approvals
History Approval manager used in ELN v1.0
Action Plan After discussion with QA a technical redesign of the review process using out
of the box review in ELN Redesign of the review test scripts and re-execution Validation of Redesigned Review Process allowed for release
21
A Go or No Go decision
Communication of the release • eLN Super Users to work groups Scheduled meetings to review eLN v2.0 features/review changes
• Training Spotlight Communication via email
Rule 2: End Users know when they will be trained
Rule 3: End Users know when they are expected to start using the tool
Rule 4: End Users know their leadership expects a learning curve
Rule 5: End users know if they have a problem there is someone to contact

Support Lessons Learned • Case in point: Workbook enhancement to remove
pasting of formulas/formatting and conditions caused several users’ implementation of the tool to break.
1. Better communication with Technical Lead
2. Know how your users are using the tool
