Implementing a new service, such as issuing CAP-based alerts, calls for careful project planning and management. Let’s take a look — from a project management perspective — at some key actions to take for adding or modifying a service:

Understand the new service (e.g., benefits, processes, technologies, risks, personnel)

Assess current service capabilities in the context of the new service

Identify resources needed to offer new service

Develop an implementation plan

Secure support and funding

Execute implementation plan

Evaluate and maintain

Of course, depending on your situation, the order and importance of each of these steps can vary. Regardless, these steps provide guidance to gather the information and resources to successfully implement a new service. Here, we'll go through them in the context of adding CAP alert authoring and a CAP alert feed to your service offerings.
