Includes everything in the Business Analyst Pack, plus a complete project delivery framework.

1. Project Governance & Operating Model

Project Charter & Mandate

• Formal charter document: purpose, scope, objectives, success criteria, constraints, and assumptions.

• Linkage to corporate strategy, mandates, and portfolio priorities.

• Defined “definition of done” for the initiative and for major phases.

Governance Structure

• Governance map: steering committee(s), working groups, sponsors, and key roles.

• Responsibilities and decision rights (RACI / RASCI) for each governance body.

• Escalation paths and thresholds (when and how issues/risks escalate).

Ways of Working

• Delivery approach (phased, agile, hybrid) with rationale tied to risk, complexity, and culture.

• Meeting and review cadences (steering, project team, stand-ups, retrospectives, etc.).

• Document and artefact standards: which templates are mandatory and at what frequency.

2. Delivery Structure & Work Breakdown

Work Breakdown Structure (WBS)

• Multi-level WBS aligned to the Strategic Execution Map (outcomes → workstreams → deliverables → tasks).

• Clear mapping of each WBS element to objectives, owners, and acceptance criteria.

• Tagging for dependencies, external inputs, and “critical path” candidates.

Workstreams & Phases

• Definition of workstreams (e.g., business, technology, change, operations) and phase gates.

• Phase entry/exit criteria and readiness checks for moving between phases.

• Integration points with other projects or programs.

3. Integrated Schedule & Milestone Plan

Master Timeline

• High-level integrated schedule (e.g., 12–24 months) with phases, key milestones, and decision points.

• Milestone descriptions, ownership, and success indicators.

Dependency & Critical Path View

• Dependency matrix showing logical links between major tasks/deliverables.

• Identification of schedule risks and “no-slip” dates.

Implementation Waves / Releases (if applicable)

• For multi-release initiatives: definition of waves, release scope, and sequencing logic.

4. Delivery Controls: Risks, Issues, and Change

Risk Management Framework

• Project-level risk management approach aligned to the enterprise risk appetite.

• Detailed risk register built from BA analysis: causes, impacts, owners, and treatments.

• Risk scoring heat map and top-risk summary for executives.

Issues & Escalation

• Issue log structure with categories, ownership, and aging rules.

• Escalation criteria and expected response timelines.

Change Control

• Change request workflow from initiation to decision (with form/template).

• Impact analysis dimensions (scope, schedule, cost, quality, benefits, risk).

• Change log for auditability and portfolio reporting.

5. Resource, Cost & Vendor Framework

Resource Model

• Role catalogue (by skill/theme) with indicative effort distribution across phases.

• Responsibility matrix showing which roles are needed where (not individual staffing).

Cost Framework

• Cost breakdown structure (people, technology, vendors, change, contingency).

• Planning-level budget ranges by phase and by cost category, aligned to options from the BA pack.

Vendor & Sourcing View (if applicable)

• High-level sourcing approach: what is in-house vs. external.

• Suggested contract / SOW structure aligned to requirements and WBS elements.

6. Communications & Stakeholder Engagement

Stakeholder Engagement Plan

• Pull-through of stakeholder landscape from BA pack into an actionable plan.

• Engagement objectives, messages, and channels by stakeholder group.

Communications Plan

• Communication calendar (what, who, when, how) across the project lifecycle.

• Templates for status updates (executive brief, team update, change notice, etc.).

Decision & Knowledge Management

• Decision log structure: decisions, rationale, alternatives considered, and owners.

• Knowledge repository structure (folders, tags) so artefacts remain discoverable.

7. Monitoring, Reporting & Dashboards

Reporting Framework

• Reporting tiers: executive, governance, project team.

• KPIs and delivery metrics (schedule performance, scope stability, risk exposure, benefits progress).

Dashboards & Views

• Wireframes / layouts for key dashboards (e.g., “Executive Snapshot”, “Delivery Health”, “Risk & Issues”).

• Data sources and update frequencies for each widget/metric.

Status Pack Templates

• Standard slide pack structure for monthly/quarterly steering meetings.

• One-page “at-a-glance” status summary (RAG, top 5 risks, top 5 decisions, next 4 weeks).

8. Implementation Playbook & Handover Assets

Implementation Playbook

• Step-by-step guide for standing up the project using the provided artefacts.

• “First 90 days” plan: what to do in Weeks 1–4, 5–8, and 9–12.

• Guidance on adapting the framework as scope or context changes.

Tooling & Workspace Blueprint

• Recommended structure for your chosen tool (e.g., Notion, Jira, Planner, Asana, or Excel-based PMO).

• Board/space layout: projects, workstreams, backlogs, risks, decisions, logs.

• Field definitions and tag sets so reports can be generated consistently.

Annexes & Reusable Libraries

• All templates (charter, logs, registers, status reports) in editable format.

• Question banks used to build PM assumptions and estimates, for reuse on future initiatives.

• Glossary of delivery terms, roles, and artefacts specific to your organization.
