DPS8020 · Implementation methodology
How a DPS8020 engagement works — phase by phase
MET-001 · Rev A · 2026-07 · DataProStudio, Inc. · English (version française en préparation)
The method is designed around one constraint: a clinic, a healthcare operation, or a smaller industrial operation cannot absorb a six-month consulting project. Every phase has a fixed scope, a named deliverable, and an exit that leaves your team — not ours — running the result. Currently piloting in Vancouver and Toronto.
Principles
- No integrator army. Connectors ingest from existing systems; your own team operates the platform from day one.
- Data readiness before promises. We verify the event data exists and is usable before any commitment to outcomes. If it isn’t there, we say so — that call is free of charge and of hype.
- Evidence by-product. Every phase leaves audit-ready artifacts (time-stamped, exportable), not slideware.
- Exit anytime. Your data is exportable (CSV, Excel, your own system) at every stage. No lock-in is part of the method, not just the pricing.
Phase 0 — Scoping call (30 min, free)
- You describe the pain: wait times, a backlog, an audit coming up.
- We tell you honestly whether DPS8020 fits, and what data we would need.
- Exit: go / no-go, and a data-inventory checklist if go.
Phase 1 — Data readiness assessment (week 0–1)
- Inventory of systems (practice-management, ERP, case-management, referral systems).
- Sample event-log extraction per system; quality check (case IDs, timestamps, coverage of the target process).
- Deliverable: data-readiness report — what’s usable now, what needs a capture point, realistic scope for the pilot.
- Roles: one sponsor + one IT/systems contact (~2–4 h/week).
Phase 2 — Pilot (6 weeks, fixed scope)
| Weeks | Work | Deliverable |
|---|
| 1–2 | Ingestion + normalization of agreed scope; first discovery run | Process map + backlog report — the real flow, cycle-time drains, backlogs, mined from your event data |
| 3–4 | Compliance mapping against your obligations (PIPEDA; Ontario PHIPA or BC PIPA where health information is involved; ISO 9001/13485 where applicable) | Compliance readiness check — evidence you already generate, gaps to close before the next audit |
| 5–6 | Live dashboard for your team; audit-trail export; integration hardening | Proof-of-concept — your team using the platform on your data, plus an exportable evidence package |
Timelines are indicative; every pilot is scoped individually. Pilot slots are currently limited to Vancouver and Toronto.
Phase 3 — Production & continuous operation
- Deployment choice confirmed: DPS8020 Cloud (Canadian & EU infrastructure, live in days) or DPS8020 On-Premise / air-gapped (dedicated hardware in your facility).
- Monitoring switches from snapshot to continuous: backlog trends, conformance drift, live audit trail.
- Quarterly review cadence — 80/20: identify the ~20% of operational changes that drive the bulk of the measurable gains.
What we ask of you
- A named sponsor with authority over the process in scope.
- IT contact for read-only data access (extracts or API, per your policy).
- Willingness to see the real process — the map is honest and sometimes uncomfortable. That is the product.
What we explicitly do not do
- We do not run months of workshops before showing data.
- We do not take your data to US-jurisdiction infrastructure.
- We do not process or interpret clinical content — only operational workflow.
- We do not publish anything about your organization without written sign-off.
