Overview

This webinar will explore the critical role of a cohesive and aligned Ecosystem Strategy in delivering infrastructure programmes and projects outcomes.

It will highlight how effective identification, assessment engagement and mobilisation of supplier capability across the ecosystem underpins strong delivery performance.

We will examine how owners, delivery partners, suppliers and key stakeholders can be brought together to operate as an integrated enterprise, aligned around a shared ecosystem strategy that maximises capability, experience and value to deliver outcomes for customers and environment.

The session will provide an overview of the key principles and processes required to develop and implement an integrated Ecosystem Strategy, aligning with Project 13 framework and learning from Project 13 Adopter community, including case studies from:

  • Anglian Water Strategic Pipeline Alliance
  • National Highways Smart Motorways Programme
  • United Utilities AMP8 Enterprise

These case studies will demonstrate how ecosystem strategy principles have been applied in practice, alongside the key challenges encountered and lessons learned.
