To execute a good operational readiness plan, you need more than a project management tool

An effective, predictable ramp-up program can lead to sustainable and stable operations at the performance level—exactly what's needed to meet your business case targets.

But having a sound operational readiness (OR) plan for your project has little value if you can’t get your team onboard to execute it properly with the right system and the right project management practices.

Traditional project management tools have limitations. Poor visibility. A lack of consistency. Less-than-optimal transparency. All factors that are needed to engage your team effectively and inspire confidence in your decision-making.

Owners' organizations can typically lose anywhere from 20-40 percent of the business case value due to poor execution of their OR plan. They see delays in achieving nameplate capacity, increased safety issues, and higher implementation costs.
