4. IMPLEMENTING A <strong>BCBP</strong> PROJECT<br />

This section provides our recommendations for managing the <strong>BCBP</strong> implementation project. One<br />

key issue is to have a team in place with a proper organisation. It is especially true for a <strong>BCBP</strong><br />

project as it involves multiple disciplines in the company and multiple external stakeholders, all<br />

with different motivations. Everyone must understand one’s roles and responsibilities.<br />

4.1. The project team<br />

A <strong>BCBP</strong> project requires various skills and expertise. One needs to make sure that those<br />

resources are available for the project and that the roles and the responsibilities of each<br />

participant are clearly defined. Typical reasons for slow and uncoordinated projects include:<br />

o Lack of structure<br />

o Lack of definition of the project<br />

o Missing roles and responsibilities<br />

o Missing executive level sponsorship<br />

4.1.1. Participants<br />

The project team will consist of participants coming mainly from 7 departments within the<br />

company (see fig. 10). Those persons should dedicate fully or partly to the project and an<br />

executive level officer should sponsor the project.<br />
