When to call AD SEN, and what changes when you do.
Critical architectural workstreams.
End-to-end resolution.
AD SEN Workstream takes the lead on a specific unresolved issue within your project - connecting disciplines, developing a workable response and bringing it to an explicit decision.
Large projects bring together experienced, specialised teams. Yet some issues sit across disciplines, packages or responsibilities. Each team handles part of the question. The complete resolution remains unassigned.
A difficult interface. An atypical part of the programme. A late change with cascading effects. A decision repeatedly deferred because no one can connect all its consequences.
AD SEN Workstream gives that issue a dedicated senior lead, a defined scope and a clear route to closure.
A focused mission within the existing project.
The architect, project manager, design manager and engineers retain their roles. AD SEN leads the agreed workstream and coordinates its resolution with them.
