Gateway process • Gateway Process: ‘owned’ by UK Office of Science and Technology • Essentially the mechanism by which UK involvement in large projects gets approved • Several ‘Gateways’ (next slide) • Gateway 1: successful passage through Gateway 1 is equivalent to approval. Subsequent steps required for project to succeed but have more of a management role for UK contribution • Goal: Gateway 1 at 01Jul03 • However: IPRP green light and positive report equivalent to science advisory panel’s endorsement of project and should be used in fund raising K. Long 21May03
Gateways: Papers with chief execs. Gateway 0 – Strategic Assessment: Assessment of business need; Assessment of risk; initiation of an independent review team; review of the objectives and planned delivery; review of management structure and resource plans; Gateway 1 – Business Justification: Assessment of the business case for MICE; review of risk management plans; review delivery plans; Gateway 2 – Procurement Strategy: confirm procurement strategy; full funding availability; appropriate resources are in place; delivery plans, financial and management controls are in place and are realistic; Gateway 3 – Investment Decisions: confirm that the procurement strategy has been followed; review and agree procurement decisions; review risk management & change control procedures; Gateway 4 – Readiness for Service: review the implementation of the project; review operating plans and procedures; Gateway 5 – Benefits Evaluation: review of achieved benefits with respect to the business case; confirm the operating plans.
PPARC’s Projects Peer Review Panel • 12May03: open presentations by Kaplan, Drumm, Barr, Long. Proposed MICE-UK. • Informal feedback only so far: • Science case and opportunity accepted • Total cost to the UK £13.7M (unloaded) … £21.8M (loaded) • Total cost, including inflation, VAT and contingency causes concern • The good news: • £7.5M potentially available, held by OST • Clear indication that £10M may be possible • The challenge: • Careful analysis/negotiation now required to ‘meet funding agencies halfway’
