Zircadian Project Management is a new service available to trusts which require focused assistance with the implementation of MyJobPlan. Working closely with the key stakeholders, Zircadian will develop and execute a project plan that covers the planning, implementation and completion of electronic job planning. The service can be applied across the whole trust or restricted to one or more departments requiring additional help. It provides the depth and duration of support trusts want and need, expertly guiding them every step of the way.

 

Zircadian recognises that each trust operates differently and will have their own approaches to this issue: one size does not fit all. To address this we carefully tailor your project plan, within budgetary constraints, to match the specific requirements of the trust.

What does the service offer?

 

 

Planning

• Successful job planning relies on good planning. The Project Management service ensures all essential information is gathered prior to commencing electronic job planning. The key elements comprise:

• identification of trust objectives and how these link to consultant job plans;

• a job planning framework, including management structure and sign off process;

• MyJobPlan set up;

• specialty specific DCC templates;
  

• trust-wide templates for SPAs, additional NHS
  responsibilities, and external duties (by capturing
  specific detail this information can be used for other
  NHS agenda items);

• detailed job planning project plan.

Implementation

Throughout the implementation stage Zircadian’s Project Management service will:

• support the management team to use MyJobPlan to its full potential;

• support medical managers through the job planning process, enabling progress to final sign off stage;

• deliver briefing sessions;

• facilitate team job planning meetings;

• support consultants to complete their job plans electronically;

• provide regular updates to the trust regarding the project plan and objectives.
  

 

Review

As part of managing the job planning process Zircadian’s Project Management service will:

• provide an audit of job plans and identify any potential exceptions;

• highlight to managers any outlying data that should be reviewed.
  

 

Completion

To conclude the job planning process Zircadian’s Project
Management service will:

• produce confirmation letters for each consultant confirming the approval of their job plan, number of PAs, payment agreed and pay threshold progression;

• complete the required payroll documentation with any salary increases/decreases;

• review the job planning documents and process;

• provide a final update to the trust.
