Turnaround Scope Management - Simple?

In order to achieve reliable performance objectives, focus on Turnaround Management Methodologies is essential. Within the Turnaround Management framework sits Scope Management which is a significant driver influencing performance in all key areas of any Turnaround. The single best payoff in terms of success comes from having a defined scope early. Then establishing a clearly defined scope baseline is the next essential step to realizing and controlling Turnaround performance metrics and achieving success. Once the baseline has been reconciled with the Schedule and Budget Baselines all added work must be follow the integrated change order process. By endorsing proactive Scope Management strategies risks that impact Safety, Budget, Schedule and Quality performance can be qualified and quantified to enable objective resolution to priority management.

Although it may seem redundant, just like planning for execution it is important to establish a mandate and Planning methodology to ensure all objectives of the configuration are achieved. Treating the development and planning stages as a legitimate project will pay significant dividends throughout the Turnaround lifecycle.
