The Toolkit contains the following practical and powerful enablers with new and updated Control System Engineering specific requirements:

STEP 1: Get your bearings

Start with...


• The latest quick edition of the Control System Engineering Self Assessment book in PDF containing 49 requirements to perform a quickscan, get an overview and share with stakeholders.


Organized in a data driven improvement cycle RDMAICS (Recognize, Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control and Sustain), check the…


• Example pre-filled Self-Assessment Excel Dashboard to get familiar with results generation


Then find your goals...

STEP 2: Set concrete goals, tasks, dates and numbers you can track

Featuring 997 new and updated case-based questions, organized into seven core areas of process design, this Self-Assessment will help you identify areas in which Control System Engineering improvements can be made.

Examples; 10 of the 997 standard requirements:


1. What steps have you taken within the finance function to avoid a complexity of disparate systems, an excessive number of spreadsheets and a multitude of different process and controls?
   
   

2. Do you have policies and standards covering electronic authentication, authorization, and access control of personnel and resources to your information systems, applications and data?
   
   

3. Are thresholds and triggers related to the performance of critical controls in the process of being developed and implemented, with some thresholds and triggers already in place?
   
   

4. Do the institutions culture, code of conduct, human resource policies and performance reward systems support its objectives and the risk management and internal control system?
   
   

5. Do systems development policies require the active participation of users in important phases of acquisition, including final approval regarding selection of vendor software?
   
   

6. Has your organization implemented a change control process that is able to prevent unauthorized and potentially vulnerable changes from taking place on your control system?
   
   

7. How will you ensure that reliable technical and procedural controls, including deactivation and fail safe shutdown, are in place to enable the safe use of the AI system?
   
   

8. Are change control/ configuration management procedures followed for all software and hardware modifications of systems that process and store sensitive information?
   
   

9. Do you have network access control policies and procedures in place for your information systems that are aligned with industry standards or control frameworks?
   
   

10. Do automatic warnings and status messages ensure effective control status monitoring during the transfer and preparation of individual financial statements?

STEP 3: Implement, Track, follow up and revise strategy

The outcomes of STEP 2, the self assessment, are the inputs for STEP 3; Start and manage Control System Engineering projects with the 62 implementation resources:


• 62 step-by-step Control System Engineering Project Management Form Templates covering over 1500 Control System Engineering project requirements and success criteria:


Examples; 10 of the check box criteria:


1. Team Operating Agreement: Do you vary your voice pace, tone and pitch to engage participants and gain involvement?
   
   

2. Executing Process Group: Just how important is your work to the overall success of the Control System Engineering project?
   
   

3. Procurement Management Plan: Has your organization readiness assessment been conducted?
   
   

4. Variance Analysis: Are all cwbs elements specified for external reporting?
   
   

5. Activity Duration Estimates: What are the main types of contracts if you do decide to outsource?
   
   

6. Executing Process Group: What is in place for ensuring adequate change control on Control System Engineering projects that involve outside contracts?
   
   

7. Scope Management Plan: Are staffing resource estimates sufficiently detailed and documented for use in planning and tracking the Control System Engineering project?
   
   

8. Scope Management Plan: Has the scope management document been updated and distributed to help prevent scope creep?
   
   

9. Procurement Audit: Does your organization have an overall strategy and/or policy on public procurement, providing guidance for procuring entities?
   
   

10. WBS Dictionary: Are Control System Engineering projected overhead costs in each pool and the associated direct costs used as the basis for establishing interim rates for allocating overhead to contracts?

Results

With this Three Step process you will have all the tools you need for any Control System Engineering project with this in-depth Control System Engineering Toolkit.

In using the Toolkit you will be better able to:


• Diagnose Control System Engineering projects, initiatives, organizations, businesses and processes using accepted diagnostic standards and practices

• Implement evidence-based best practice strategies aligned with overall goals

• Integrate recent advances in Control System Engineering and put process design strategies into practice according to best practice guidelines


Defining, designing, creating, and implementing a process to solve a business challenge or meet a business objective is the most valuable role; In EVERY company, organization and department.

Unless you are talking a one-time, single-use project within a business, there should be a process. Whether that process is managed and implemented by humans, AI, or a combination of the two, it needs to be designed by someone with a complex enough perspective to ask the right questions. Someone capable of asking the right questions and step back and say, 'What are we really trying to accomplish here? And is there a different way to look at it?'

This Toolkit empowers people to do just that - whether their title is entrepreneur, manager, consultant, (Vice-)President, CxO etc... - they are the people who rule the future. They are the person who asks the right questions to make Control System Engineering investments work better.

This Control System Engineering All-Inclusive Toolkit enables You to be that person.
