Governance and Stakeholders

Introduction

Governance, in the intricate landscape of Public-Private Partnership Special Purpose Vehicles (PPP SPVs), plays a pivotal role in ensuring project success. Effective governance structures and mechanisms not only streamline project execution but also foster a culture of transparency, accountability, and collaboration.

In the context of our project, Digital Ubiquity Capital acts as an extension of capital partners to manage and oversee the SPV’s operations. This document delves deep into the governance protocols established for this partnership.

Communication and Reporting Structures

Effective communication serves as the bedrock of our governance model. Ensuring a clear flow of information between Digital Ubiquity Capital and the capital partners is paramount to aligning project objectives and tracking performance against predetermined benchmarks.

  • Regular Updates: Monthly meetings provide a platform for updates on project progress, financial forecasting, risk management, and other critical areas.

  • Contractual Changes: Any modifications to contracts or associated deliverables are communicated immediately to ensure all stakeholders are on the same page.

  • Financial Modelling and Forecasts: These are regularly updated and shared to provide a real-time view of the project’s financial health and its alignment with the overall objectives.

This flowchart depicts the communication flow starting from the Project Team to the Capital Partners. Intermediate processes involving Project Managers from each prime, a Coordinator inside the SPV, and DUC Experts have been detailed. It also provides a clear picture of how the Coordinator takes input from the Project Managers, then refines it with the DUC Experts before it reaches Digital Ubiquity Capital and subsequently the Capital Partners.

Change Management and Governance Oversight

Given the dynamic nature of our project environment, changes are inevitable. However, what’s crucial is how these changes are managed and approved to ensure that the project remains on track.

  • Change Approval: All significant changes, be it in contracts, service definitions, or pricing, need to undergo rigorous scrutiny and ultimately receive governance approval.

  • Impact Analysis: Any proposed change undergoes a thorough impact analysis, especially on the financial models, to understand its broader implications.

  • Service Definitions and Pricing: Digital Ubiquity Capital ensures that any change in service definitions or pricing undergoes a comprehensive review process. This includes an assessment by a dedicated forum followed by governance approval.
