PROJECT GOVERNANCE
Make responsibilities and decisions visible.
Scope & change
Document the agreed work and the impact of new requests. Review changes against business value, dependencies and the delivery plan.
Data & access
Assign owners for source data, migration checks and access approvals. Consider the handling of sensitive information in the solution design.
Issues & dependencies
Maintain visibility of unresolved issues and dependencies on teams, systems or providers. Agree who makes each decision.
Acceptance & handover
Define acceptance scenarios and review evidence with business owners. Document the solution so operational teams can take responsibility.
ENGAGEMENT PLANNING
The method stays structured.
The scope stays specific.
The size and sequence of the work depend on your system landscape and business priorities. A focused interface project and an ERP implementation need different delivery plans.
Before work begins, we agree the scope, responsibilities, outputs and review points. Timescales and ongoing service arrangements are defined for the engagement.
