Benchmark Maturity Map

Identify Hidden Outcome Exposure Before It Becomes Project Failure

Projects are Complex

Major projects are typically measured by construction completion. But the real objective is the delivery of the intended operational outcome.

The ICxA Outcome Assurance Benchmark provides organisations with an independent perspective on how effectively their project delivery practices support that objective.

Corporate Members receive access to self-assessment tools to evaluate their organisation’s commissioning, operational readiness, and outcome assurance capabilities, highlighting where exposure may be quietly accumulating throughout the project lifecycle.

Maturity Mapping

Corporate Members receive a maturity map for the 3 core capabilities required to deliver successful project outcomes

Why These Maturity Maps Matter

Most organizations measure cost, schedule, and technical performance.

Few measure their structural capability to assure the intended project outcome itself.

Identify organizational capability gaps that accumulate risk and cause late and over-budget outcomes.

Leaders in the industry are using this to showcase exceptional organizational capabilities to deliver what matters – project outcomes. Corporate Members receive marketing material they can use in proposals and project documents demonstrating leadership in complex industries.
