Governance decision intelligence

Governance Decision Intelligence (GDI) is TacminMadini’s independent, owner-mandated governance capability, providing forward visibility into how evolving conditions are likely to affect future owner exposure, accountability, and outcomes across complex, long-life assets. Operating above execution, GDI strengthens owner-side governance by analysing governance-critical signals across the asset lifecycle to assess where approved intent, authority or accountability are most likely to diverge as conditions evolve. Using AI-enabled pattern recognition alongside governance judgement, GDI highlights emerging exposure early, enabling owners to intervene proportionately, preserve optionality and govern with confidence while meaningful choices remain available.

Why it matters	Feasibility approval establishes the basis for proceeding, but it does not guarantee that the capital, cost, schedule and production assumptions approved at that point will ultimately hold. As commitments escalate, optionality reduces rapidly and the ability to correct foundational decisions diminishes.
What GDI provides	Governance Decision Intelligence (GDI) maintains forward visibility over whether the approved feasibility case is likely to remain valid as conditions evolve, highlighting early divergence between approved intent, emerging assumptions and downstream decision pathways while meaningful options remain available.
What this enables	Earlier recognition of governance exposure, enabling owners to refresh decisions, adjust commitments or strengthen controls before capital is irreversibly committed and accountability hardens.

Why it matters	Closure and transition decisions carry long-term environmental, social and financial obligations that extend well beyond active operations. These obligations often accumulate gradually and can remain under-governed until accountability becomes difficult to reassign, remediate or defend.
What GDI provides	Governance Decision Intelligence (GDI) maintains forward visibility over whether closure assumptions, rehabilitation pathways and post-closure responsibilities are likely to be met as intended as conditions evolve, including where accountability may be fragmenting or residual exposure is emerging.
Outcome	Earlier recognition of future accountability exposure, enabling owners to address closure readiness, residual obligations and legacy risk while authority remains clear and options for intervention still exist.

Why it matters	Engineering development and procurement translate approved feasibility assumptions into binding technical, commercial and contractual commitments. At this stage, flexibility reduces rapidly and early decisions can lock in cost, schedule and risk exposure long before delivery performance becomes visible or reversible.
What GDI provides	Governance Decision Intelligence (GDI) maintains forward visibility over whether engineering choices, procurement strategies and contracting structures are likely to preserve approved intent and decision authority, or introduce latent pressure that is more likely to surface later during execution.
What this enables	Earlier recognition of emerging governance exposure, enabling owners to intervene before commitments harden, authority fragments and downstream options narrow.

Why it matters	During execution, complexity increases and responsibility becomes decentralised across contractors, operators and advisors. At the same time, owner visibility and direct control often reduce, while exposure to cost, schedule and performance outcomes accelerates and becomes harder to recover.
What GDI provides	Governance Decision Intelligence (GDI) maintains forward visibility over whether delivery behaviour, coordination and decision pathways are likely to remain aligned with approved intent and owner authority, highlighting early signals of emerging loss of control, accountability dilution or directional drift.
What this enables	Earlier recognition of governance exposure, enabling owners to intervene before loss of control becomes embedded and remaining options narrow to reactive correction.

Why it matters	As projects transition into operations, unresolved delivery issues, latent defects and governance gaps can undermine safety, reliability and long-term performance. This stage often carries hidden exposure as accountability shifts, interfaces change and operational expectations begin to solidify.
What GDI provides	Governance Decision Intelligence (GDI) maintains forward visibility over whether the asset is stabilising as intended, or whether unresolved delivery assumptions, governance overload or dependency concentration are likely to erode operational predictability and owner control.
What this enables	Earlier recognition of emerging fragility, enabling owners to address governance, accountability and dependency risks before they become embedded in long-term operating performance and difficult to unwind.
