Who initiates an OGC Gateway Review?
The responsibility for initiating an OGC Gateway Review rests with the Senior Responsible Owner of the programme or project. All programmes/projects must have a completed Risk Potential Assessment (RPA), which is submitted to your Centre of Excellence (CoE) or Departmental Gateway Coordinator who will send it the OGC Gateway Directorate at gateway.helpdesk@ogc.gsi.gov.uk once a requirement for an OGC Gateway Review is established. On receipt of the RPA, the OGC Gateway Operations team will contact the Project Manager to arrange an initial assessment meeting with a Better Projects Gateway Project Director (BPD).
