Information Integration to Improve Capital Project Performance

In the execution of capital projects, CII member companies face significant challenges to understand where they currently stand and how to advance effectively and efficiently. RT-258 provides a process map that identifies key steps by which firms can evaluate their current status, identify information integration opportunities and prioritize their implementation. (IR258-2-v1, p. 1)

There are three discrete steps to assess an integration opportunity. (IR258-2-v1, p. 9)

• Select key IOP’s for further analysis.
• Refine analysis of selected IOP’s.
