Readiness Intelligence

Evidence-led readiness intelligence before capital commitment

Readiness Intelligence

Capital readiness is rarely undermined by one visible deficiency.

Exposure develops as assumptions remain untested, scope definition advances unevenly and cost, schedule, contracting and delivery strategies become progressively accepted. By the time weaknesses become apparent, commitments may already be difficult or costly to change.

Readiness Intelligence independently tests whether project definition, key assumptions, delivery readiness and owner capability are supported by sufficient evidence before major commitments are made.

Readiness intelligence operating environments

Project Definition

Where scope, requirements and critical interfaces require independent testing.

Studies & Business Cases

Where feasibility findings and investment assumptions require validation.

Cost & Schedule

Where estimates, schedules and assumptions require independent challenge.

Delivery Strategy

Where contracting, procurement and implementation pathways remain under development.

Owner Readiness

Where governance, capability and decision conditions must support commitment.


What GDI Examines
Decision Intelligence Outputs

Readiness Intelligence Principle

GDI does not endorse the project case, replace technical advisers or make the investment decision. It independently determines whether the project position is supported by evidence, identifies material exposure and establishes the conditions requiring owner attention before commitment.

When Further Investigation May Be Warranted

Where material assumptions, interfaces or readiness conditions remain unresolved, GDI identifies the additional investigation or owner action required before the project advances.

Validate the evidence. Understand the exposure. Decide with confidence.
