I have sat in a lot of programme reviews at medium and large design organisations.
The format is almost always the same. Each discipline presents their status. Structures, then systems, then avionics, then performance. An hour later, everyone has heard a lot of information.
Almost nobody has a clear picture of where the programme actually is.
Not because the presentations were unclear. Because programme status is not only the sum of discipline statuses. It is also the picture that emerges from the relationships between them — from knowing that the open item in discipline A has an implication for the compliance claim in discipline B, which is on the critical path to the milestone discipline C is waiting for.
That picture does not exist in any single presentation. It has to be assembled by whoever has enough context to hold the whole thing. In most organisations that is one or two people. When they leave the programme, the assembly capacity goes with them.
A live compliance infrastructure gives you the integrated picture before the meeting, based on the same data, available to everyone in the room. The meeting becomes the discussion, not the information gathering.
How much of your programme review time is spent assembling the picture versus acting on it? Would you like to see what complete transparency at compliance level looks like? Call us for a demo!
