Execution Intelligence™
A project execution framework for developing, engineering, delivering and operating energy infrastructure.
The seven stages
-
01
DEVELOP
Establishing whether a project is viable and defining what it is: site and technical feasibility, grid and evacuation assessment, commercial viability, approvals and scope.
Scope of the stage
- Opportunity identification
- Technical and site feasibility
- Grid and evacuation assessment
- Commercial viability
- Approvals
- Risk assessment
- Scope definition
- Stakeholder coordination
- Bid and proposal development
-
02
PLAN
Turning a defined project into an executable plan: execution strategy, schedule, engineering deliverables, procurement packages, cost baseline, quality requirements and controls.
Scope of the stage
- Execution strategy
- Detailed schedule
- Engineering and design deliverables
- Procurement strategy
- Package planning
- Construction methodology
- Organisation and responsibilities
- Cost baseline
- Milestones and controls
- Quality requirements
- Inspection requirements
- Risks and mitigation
- Reporting and monitoring
- Client and stakeholder coordination
-
03
GOVERN
The control layer that keeps execution aligned with the approved plan, across schedule, cost, engineering, procurement, construction, quality, risk and reporting.
Scope of the stage
- Schedule progress
- Cost and budget monitoring
- Engineering deliverables and approvals
- Procurement and material status
- Construction progress
- Quality and compliance
- Risks, issues and corrective actions
- Responsibility and accountability
- Changes and deviations
- Documentation and records
- Project and management reviews
- Milestones and critical path
- Client and stakeholder reporting and coordination
-
04

- Pre-commissioning
-
06
COMMISSION
Testing, energisation and verification through to handover: equipment, electrical, protection and control testing, system integration, punch-point closure and project close-out.
Scope of the stage

07
OPERATE
Operations and maintenance across the life of the asset: preventive and corrective maintenance, performance and availability monitoring, spares, reporting and compliance support.
Scope of the stage
- O&M planning
- Preventive maintenance
- Corrective and breakdown maintenance
- Asset performance monitoring
- Availability and reliability monitoring
