Our process is designed to expose dependencies early, organize work around clear decisions, and keep commercial ambition aligned with delivery reality.
5 PHASES / EACH A DECISION GATE / ADVANCE · RESHAPE · STOP
Development as decision architecture
The process is not a presentation exercise. It is a practical framework for reducing uncertainty, directing specialist work, and moving toward an outcome the market, infrastructure, capital, and delivery programme can all support.
DECISION GATE / 01
Assess
Understand the asset, market, constraints, stakeholders, timing, and the thesis that could make the opportunity valuable.
Is there a credible opportunity to pursue?
DECISION GATE / 02
Define
Set the business model, target demand, infrastructure requirements, capacity phases, commercial position, and route forward.
Is the definition supported by the asset and market?
DECISION GATE / 03
Structure
Align technical, energy, financial, legal, permitting, commercial, and delivery expertise around one coordinated programme.
Does the project have the right structure and specialist support?
DECISION GATE / 04
Validate
Challenge cost, demand, schedule, technical feasibility, commercial assumptions, capital logic, and execution risk before commitment grows.
Are the critical assumptions sufficiently supported to progress?
DECISION GATE / 05
Execute
Support permitting, financing, procurement, construction interfaces, customer development, reporting, and the decisions that keep momentum credible.
What must happen next, by whom, and on what basis?
The purpose of the process
Bring us the opportunity at its current stage. We will help establish what must be proven next.
