Implementation

Implications
The process of putting a plan, strategy, or solution into action, often involving coordination, resource allocation, and management to achieve desired outcomes, commonly used in business, IT, and project management to turn ideas into reality.
Example
Example: A company implements a new CRM system by training employees, migrating data, and integrating the software with existing processes, ensuring that the new system enhances customer relationship management.
