The Early Project Overview (EPO) is a 45 minute presentation by the sponsoring Directorates to Treasury and Procurement and Capital Works.
Presentations are expected to be held in the first week of August each year.
The EPO seeks to achieve the following outcomes
- An outline of the Needs Analysis and justification for the project
- Presentation on the outcomes of ILW where undertaken
- Address at a high level the anticipated delivery model
- Provide early guidance on identified gaps to sponsor directorates
The EPO is intended to minimise the likelihood on unexpected feedback on business case (SAF) submission and provide greater clarity to the requesting and reviewing parties.
