Review of Council Priority Projects

Cornerstone Assets carried out a ‘healthcheck’ review of c.60 of the Council’s priority projects in order to:

• understand the overall delivery status and readiness of all priority areas of work
• identify portfolios/programmes/projects which require immediate intervention
• identify common themes, risks and issues
• identify key questions and actions to be addressed

Projects were categorised according to their focus as either: development; capital; efficiency; policy/regulatory. Projects were assessed to identify whether they were experiencing one or more of the following issues: definition; resourcing; governance stakeholders; risk/complexity.

We prepared a report analysing our findings of the review and presented a set of recommendations to improve programme and project management.
