project transitioning
Project Transition is a process of transferring knowledge and understanding from the project team over to the client and embedding it into their processes and procedures for the life of the asset or facility.
DESIGN INTEGRATION
Design with end-state understanding is key to a successful transition through the life cycle of the project into operations. ProjectCX provides the experience and expertise to ensure the correct configuration of asset information and the existence of “golden thread” O&M material within design deliverable documentation, by either review or authoring.
OPERATIONAL READINESS
Operational Readiness can be defined as having the capacity to deploy, operate and maintain structures, systems and components safely and efficiently. It is used within Project Management to ensure that the activities for a smooth roll out of information and O&M solutions are costed for, scheduled and implemented at the correct phase of the project, to reduce operational risks.
OPERATIONAL EXECUTION
Throughout the commissioning phase of a project, emphasis is rightly or wrongly normally put on the specific plant or equipment that has been installed to ensure the equipment is safe to use, compliant with regulations and throughput can be achieved. Commissioning of the People, Processes & Procedures can sometimes be overlooked and passed over to the business-as-usual team or client to complete. This means any operational risks will also be passed over and therefore handover could be prolonged and costly to the project team.
OPERATIONAL EVALUATION
As with any new building, machine or asset, the first year of operation can often be the most problematic and can require quite a bit of troubleshooting and fine-tuning of the engineering systems by the occupiers. Operational evaluation provides the framework that enables the project transitioning team to remain involved with the built assets beyond practical completion, which assists the client and occupiers during the first months of operations and beyond.
