Delivered on time is only half the question
Project governance tracks scope, schedule and budget. The ICxA Podcast asks what happens after that: whether the plant starts up, the systems work together, the operators are ready, and the asset produces what the business case promised.
Each episode pairs practitioners with the people who carry the risk when an asset underperforms. We cover the evidence, methods and standards that show outcome risk before it becomes an operating problem.
Who it is for
- Owners and operators: getting from mechanical completion to reliable operation without a long, costly ramp-up.
- Lenders and insurers: what to look for when judging whether a project will perform after handover.
- Commissioning and readiness leads: interfaces, control of work, capability building and the ICxA standards.
- Project directors and boards: holding someone accountable for the outcome, not just the delivery.
