One Project, Multiple Business Units: When to Choose Integrated Business Solutions

Many corporate projects do not end in one service range. For example, new spaces may include both design, construction, equipment, product launch, stock and distribution to multiple agencies. If each section is managed separately, the number of coordination points and risks from non-conform data will increase.

When to use multiple suppliers is also appropriate

If each Scope is clearly separated, there is no high dependency and the organization has a strong internal project management team. The use of multiple experts may fit for the best-in-class choice in each side.

When Integrated Approach Begins to Be Beneficial?

When multiple Scope uses the same data set, there is a timeline connected or must be delivered continuously. For example, procurement needs to wait for Design, Construction needs to support Equipment or Merchandise needs to connect with Stock and Fulfillment. The main coherence point reduces data transmission and reduces the movement between teams.

Multi-Walling Examples Business Unit

• Healthcare Project: Consulting & Accreditation + Medical Equipment + Facility Improvement
• New Corporate Space: Design & Interior + Facility Support + Procurement
• Merchandise Program: Premium Products + Strategic Sourcing + Inventory + Fulfillment
• Hotel / Wellness Project: Concept & Service Design + Space Development + Quality Management Mindset

What should be defined even with the Integrated Partner?

Integrated does not mean that Scope should always include everything. The organization should define liability Deliverable, approval point, timeline and the range of each expert section to provide an optimum service integration instead of making a role interconnected.
