Example plan for using the framework of implementability

Concept	During development and early evaluation	After initial evidence of effectiveness	Enabling factors to consider
Acceptability	✓	✓	Intervention information/knowledge, experience of delivering or receiving the intervention
Fidelity	✓	✓	Acceptability, training, supervision, treatment manual
Feasibility	✓	✓	Fidelity, training, resources (equipment, physical space, time), social/organisational/political support
The factors above to be investigated iteratively with stakeholders in the inner setting The factors below to be investigated iteratively with a broader range of stakeholders (inner and outer settings)
Scalability	✕	✓	Acceptability, fidelity, feasibility, training, resources (equipment, physical space, time), social/organisational/political support, partnerships and collaborations
Sustainability	✕	✓	Acceptability, fidelity, feasibility, training, resources (equipment, physical space, time), social/organisational/political support, partnerships and collaborations
