SCOPING/CRYSTALLIZATION OF PROJECTS
Project Crystallization: From concept to clearly defined scope and action
plan
Have you ever been faced with a large project where each member of the
team seems to have a very different idea of the project mandate, scope and
business benefits which should be targeted?
Many strategic projects are larger and more cumbersome for a client team to be
confident of the definition of scope and the steps needed to refine this scope into
an action plan for detailing requirements. Our team has worked on assignments as
large as flight operations for a major commercial carrier, and we know how to
rapidly crystallize a project. This means that in less than a week, your team
has consensus on:
1. The scope of the project – including what function/transaction types
should be inside the project definition and what is outside.
2. The technology systems that this project will touch.
3. The prioritization of the elements of the system and objectives for the
business in pursuing this initiative.
4. The groups which must be at the table when requirements are put together so
that consensus can be reached across business areas on how a particular function
will be run.
5. A detailed elicitation plan which documents what subject experts must be
available, at which points in time and over how many days, to completely extract and
document the requirements for this initiative.
Our team has run scoping and crystallization assignments across most
industries and applications including:
- One of the world’s largest commercial airlines – Flight operations
- One of North America’s largest utilities – Supply Chain Systems
- A variety of large North American P&C Insurers in their Policy Management
