5. Project Planning – Critical Elements  Conducted weekly meetings for 6 weeks prior to the move.  Amended start times to meet critical start and finish times  Allowed for hold ups and unforeseen changes.  Library had to be able to continue to operate during this time  Sydney Operations Manager flew in the week before the start and was involved in checking plans and suggesting changes.  Test runs were conducted the week prior to ensure scanning and packing would work  Changes to the programme were made to allow additional comments on conditions of books (allow staff to make repairs and identify books requiring repairs ).  Agreeing how books would be returned to the shelves and zoning of each area

6. The Solution Delivered  Uplift fully completed within 5.5 days  Full Project Planning prior during and after the move  Allied Pickfords’ I.T. team developed a specific programme to scan and record every book from off the shelf to back on the shelf again  We employed a large number of University Students for this project  Allied Pickfords and Online Security partnered up to provide a seamless tracking and online ordering solution  The layout of the library was changed upon return 5
