GDI for Engineering & Procurement

Forward governance insight as commitments harden

Engineering & Procurement Governance Decision Intelligence

Turning approved feasibility intent into governed commitments that protect owner accountability

Approved feasibility establishes what the project is expected to deliver. Engineering and procurement translate that intent into defined scope, commercial structures and contractual commitments. This is the stage where flexibility reduces rapidly and exposure begins to harden. Governance Decision Intelligence (GDI) provides owner-side governance insight at this point by maintaining forward visibility over whether engineering and procurement decisions remain aligned with approved feasibility intent as commitments are formed. Operating above engineers, contractors and advisors, GDI enables early recognition of emerging divergence between approved intent and contractual reality, allowing owners to intervene while corrective options remain available and accountability remains clear.

Purpose and Intent

To provide forward governance insight into whether engineering and procurement decisions are likely to preserve approved feasibility intent and decision integrity as commercial and contractual commitments escalate.

Focus and Scope

Governance Decision Intelligence (GDI) focuses on the alignment between approved feasibility intent, engineering design and procurement commitments, including:

  • scope definition and engineering maturity relative to approved assumptions
  • procurement strategy, sequencing and packaging decisions
  • allocation of risk, incentives and accountabilities across parties
  • pricing structures, commercial mechanisms and cost certainty provisions
  • schedule commitments embedded within contractual arrangements
  • consistency between feasibility assumptions and contractual obligations

The focus is not on directing engineering or procurement activity.
It is on whether emerging commitments are likely to preserve approved intent and owner accountability as exposure hardens.
