What you need to do

You will need clear lines of reporting and decision making that are kept as short as possible. Delegation and individual responsibility for decision making must be transparent from the outset and understood by everyone involved. Where cross-cutting projects require collaboration from a number of organisations, this is critically important.

Identify stakeholders

Ensure that all major stakeholders have been identified and their interests appropriately represented - e.g. via user panels, the project board etc

Points to consider

See the briefing on governance.
