The Challenge

  • Engage with the project director and the area managers for the project to fully understand the contract objectives;

  • Draft documents giving BMA rights to interrogate when they require;
  • Ensure commonality and consistency with other BMA contracts to facilitate personnel transfers and minimise familiarisation requirements.

The Outcome

  • Budget and schedule achieved;
  • Full suite of interviews conducted with the contract’s future users and where possible, their requirements were captured; where not the reasons were explained.
