Governance Processes

Trinity's Standard Project Governance Process views the life-cycle of a Capital Project as a series of sequential ‘Stages’.

Each Stage is separated by a ‘Gate’ at which a formal review takes place to determine if the project is to progress, and what funding is to be provided. This is known as ‘Stage Gate Approval’.

The figure below provides a high-level view of the Capital Projects Governance Process:

Several mandatory processes are in place which each Capital Project must follow:

  • Project Approval and Prioritisation Process
  • Stage Gate Approval Process
  • RAID Review Management Process
  • Change Requests

These processes support the management, monitoring and control of the project in order to maintain them within College-wide Capital Project Governance.
