Implementation translates plans into deliverables and involves specific projects. Challenges that can hinder implementation include untimely funding releases, low revenue, weak capacity, and poor monitoring. These challenges map to project management areas like scope, schedule, resources, and risk. Analyses of problems in areas like cost, resources, and data identified potentials, opportunities, and challenges to address constraints. Overall, effective implementation requires overcoming hurdles to translate plans into visible results.
