Description of implementation mapping steps

	Description
Step 1. Conduct a needs assessment	Gather data and engage partners to understand their needs and sources of support related to implementation
Step 2. Identify implementation determinants and outcomes	Determine the factors (e.g., barriers and facilitators) influencing implementation; determine the implementation-related goals that partners want to accomplish
Step 3. Select implementation strategies	Identify the methods and techniques that will leverage implementation facilitators and overcome implementation barriers to achieve stated goals
Step 4. Produce and deploy implementation strategies and materials	Develop and provide materials, resources, equipment, and processes that will support implementation.
Step 5. Evaluate implementation outcomes	Gather data to assess the extent to which implementation strategies led to changes in target goals.
