Our experience in this industry allows us to put together a baseline of key elements to ensure appropriate discipline engagement comprising project scope, timeline, complexity, risk, goals, and benefits. We align ourselves with the project stakeholders and what their interests and expectations are, and most importantly, how to communicate with them effectively.
Accountability and responsibilities are core attributes of project governance, required to ensure the effectiveness of meetings, the change control process, risk assessment and the communication plan.
It is important from the outset to define not only who is accountable, but also who is responsible, consulted and informed for each of the project deliverables.
Our communication plan is developed to ensure that each discipline understands the mode and content of the communication, frequency, owner/receiver, communication milestones and decision gates, in crisp and precise manner.
