Depending on the capital costs or risk associated with a project, a project’s progress and quality may be assessed via a series of gateway reviews by independent reviewers. These reviews help ensure that the project (and associated investment) meets strategic objectives and achieves value for money.
Gateway reviews employ a small team of independent experts to examine major programs or projects at key decision points. They help identify opportunities to improve the delivery of programs and projects and to ensure the best possible outcome.
The PAF provides tools and techniques to assess projects throughout the project lifecycle and is not limited to infrastructure projects or public private partnership (PPP) projects.
