OWNER SCOPE MANAGEMENT

From Outputs to Outcomes: The Initiated Owner’s Critical Role in Modern Capital Project Delivery

A Change is Underway for Modern Infrastructure Project Owners

As modern infrastructure projects have grown in complexity and scale, so have the challenges and risk project owners face, making the owner’s role in modern capital project delivery more important than ever. The role has evolved to encompass a broader range of important responsibilities, such as operational readiness, that span the entire project lifecycle and are now proven to be essential to attain projects’ business goals and as a result, successful outcomes. Known collectively as “Owner Scope”, key aspects of these modern owner responsibilities include:

  • Project Stewardship - Objective Setting; Roles & Responsibilities; Decision Processes; Frameworks & Methodologies

  • Stakeholder Engagement - Stakeholder Communication, Collaboration, Alignment, and Feedback Management

  • Operations Enablement - Concept of Operations Development; Operational Readiness; Activation; Transition; Posture Mgmt.

Managing these responsibilities effectively is critical for owners. Traditionally, owners have relied on a patchwork of spreadsheets, email, SharePoint, and other manual systems to coordinate and track their responsibilities. However, this antiquated approach is inadequate for managing modern infrastructure projects because it’s error-prone and fraught with inefficiencies that ultimately hinder project success.

Project owners have taken note and are changing the way they think about capital project delivery, modernizing their approach and empowering their teams with the advanced capabilities they need to deliver successful outcomes for today’s infrastructure projects.

Owner Scope Management (OSM) Emerges

/ˈōnər/  /skōp/  /ˈmanijmənt/

Owner Scope Management has emerged as a new category of technology uniquely designed for infrastructure project owners. The technology provides owners with a single integrated cloud platform that assembles all the owner scope workflows and leverages embedded frameworks, automation, collaboration, analytics and artificial intelligence (AI) in place of the traditional, risk-fraught, inefficient, error-prone spreadsheets of the past. By empowering their teams with true owner scope management software platform owners achieve:

  • Enhanced Collaboration and Communication

  • Improved Workflow Efficiency

  • Increased Visibility and Transparency

  • Streamlined Decision-Making

  • Enhanced Security and Compliance

  • Scalability and Flexibility

Modern Owner Scope Responsibilities

By moving away from disparate spreadsheets and manual processes, owners and their teams can unlock the full potential of technology to drive successful project outcomes and achieve operational readiness more efficiently and effectively. Adopting a unified cloud platform is a smart investment for organizations seeking to modernize their project delivery approach and enhance their critical infrastructure delivery capabilities.

It’s time to think differently about capital project delivery.
