The Go/No-Go process is an important component of risk management. Analyzing and understanding the qualifications and capabilities of the client, project, and team are critical to making informed decisions in the pursuit and implementation of A/E projects. These and other practice factors impact the ability of the team to fulfill its professional duties and deliver a quality project in conformance with the design professional’s broader duties in health, safety, and welfare of the general public. A structured and systematic Go/No-Go process can also help you better manage the cost of marketing new business through more objective decision-making. We have developed a flexible yet strategic approach that encourages active thought and discussion to reach a reasonable conclusion. This practice-focused workshop addresses the identification of key factors in making the Go/No-Go decision.
