We are pleased to announce the launch of our Commissionability Factor (CF) framework, a breakthrough model designed to help business leaders assess and benchmark how “ready for commissioning” their projects truly are.
Targeted specifically at the C-Suite and senior leadership in capital-intensive, Safety Critical industries, the CF model introduces a measurable score from 0.00 to 1.00 that reflects the likelihood of successful Commissioning and Start-Up. CF is forecast from early in the project lifecycle and refined through each Stage Gate, giving leaders unprecedented visibility into commissioning readiness and risk exposure.
The CF framework enables:
-
Informed decisions at the contracting and design stages
-
Validation of CSU budgets against industry benchmarks
-
Risk-based funding gap calculations
-
Proactive mitigation of Owner and Contractor misalignments
The model also highlights strategic blind spots that often go unnoticed at executive level – such as premature Module handovers, failure to plan CSU adequately, and loss of leadership continuity after Mechanical Completion.
With industry-specific benchmarks (e.g., Oil & Gas CFmax = 0.95), FGL’s CF tool gives decision-makers a credible way to compare project performance, justify CSU investments, and satisfy investor scrutiny with data-backed confidence.
“We believe the CF will become a powerful KPI in project governance,” said Alan Mills, Director of Falcon Global. “It’s more than a metric – it’s a decision support tool that aligns leadership focus with successful project delivery.”
As part of its commitment to supporting industry leaders, Falcon Global recognises that it’s not enough to simply reach out to the C-Suite — we must equip them with tools that enable better decisions. That’s precisely what the Commissionability Factor delivers: practical, data-driven support for those with ultimate responsibility for project success.
The Commissionability Factor is now available for use on projects supported by FGL and GMcLeod Consulting and ExplainMedia. For more information or to explore how CF can be applied to your project, please contact Falcon Global Ltd
