ANRU speeds up the adoption of its IODA application.

The third IODA module had to be rolled out on a tight schedule, to two populations with very different uses. K-STUDIO trains through practice; K-NOW recalls the business rules inside the application.

The context

Rolling out a major IODA version on a tight schedule.

IODA is the application developed in-house by ANRU to manage contracts and grants. After the first two modules went live, the Agency was preparing the third, with training to run for 130 internal staff and 1 500 external partners, whose roles and uses have nothing in common.

The blind spot

An external partner does not open the application every week.

The assessment rules and the expected documents are not retained after a single session. And opening a training environment for two such different populations would have meant maintaining it, resetting it and funding it.

The scope

The application covered by the deployment.

The solution

Train through practice, then recall the rule at the right moment.

Two complementary solutions, chosen on the recommendation of DXC Technology.

An alternative to a training environment

The IT department avoids the maintenance, the resets and the cost of a dedicated training environment.

Two audiences, two uses

Internal staff and external partners are supported separately, according to their roles.

Business rules on the screen

K-NOW recalls the rules and the expected documents directly while IODA is being used.

Content that is easy to enrich

The teams add and update exercises and guidance as new versions arrive.

The results

More engaging training and stronger adoption.

Training well received

More than 90 % of the sessions were rated as meeting participants’ expectations.

Risk-free learning

Learners practise, make mistakes and correct themselves with no impact on production.

Fewer procedural errors

The guidance secures the activities and recalls the business rules at the useful moment.

Autonomy that lasts

The exercises remain available outside training and the help is reachable inside IODA in real conditions.

Frequently asked questions

What we are asked about this deployment.

Does K-NOW replace training at ANRU?
No. The K-STUDIO exercises prepare users before go-live. K-NOW takes over inside IODA, at the moment a case arrives and the business rule has been forgotten.
Which applications are covered?
In production:IODA→(contracts and grants, 1 630 users).
How large is the deployment?
1 630 users trained, including 130 internal staff and 1 500 external partners, with two solutions deployed: K-STUDIO and K-NOW.
What does it change day to day?
Training well received, rated as meeting expectations by more than 90 %. Autonomy that lasts: the exercises remain available outside training and the help is reachable inside IODA in real conditions.
