What GTMI takes on
Programme definition and delivery responsibility
GTMI assesses programmes, defines releases and takes delivery responsibility alongside programme leads and vendors. We review conflicting requirements and unresolved dependencies, then prepare a backlog for the sponsor to decide on. An embedded role carries those decisions through design reviews, evidence preparation and site readiness. The assessment identifies a viable next release and its unresolved dependencies, so the sponsor can decide what to include, what to defer and which decisions need escalation. The sponsor agrees the responsibility and decision authority at the outset.
Technical oversight
Architecture review, validation strategy, developer governance, and coordination across application and infrastructure teams.
Vendor and team coordination
Work packages, acceptance responsibilities, decision records, and follow-through on dependencies.
Rollout governance
Shared product decisions, site readiness criteria, release responsibilities, and the transition to support.
The delivery work
Define the product and the delivery model
Work can include requirements boundaries, architecture decisions, validation strategy, release scope, and allocation of responsibilities across internal teams and vendors. GTMI helps establish how changes are proposed, reviewed, and accepted. For a multi-site programme, that includes deciding which parts belong to the shared product and which local differences require a site decision. We include site entry criteria and support responsibilities in the delivery plan.
Carry decisions into the work
An embedded role can continue through backlog review, technical design discussions, vendor coordination, evidence review, and deployment preparation. GTMI works with the actual requirements, architecture, test results, and release dependencies. Decision records and agreed actions support the client’s governance meetings. GTMI follows the work through to the agreed deliverable and records who is responsible for each unresolved dependency.
