GO / NO-GO CHECKPOINT - END OF ANALYSIS

Purpose: This purpose of the Go/No-Go Checkpoint – End of Analysis is to decide if the project should proceed to the
Design stage. In order to make this determination, the Delivery Manager (DM) should compile information below and then
setup a Go / No Go meeting with the Delivery Director to review the results. Based on the information gathered, a
recommendation will be made as to whether or not the project is still viable and should proceed. The DM and Delivery Director
may seek the Executive Director’s approval for the recommendation. Once completed and approved (email approval is fine),
this document must be filed in PPM.
