Project Health Control (PHC) Service
Most projects don’t fail because nobody worked hard. They fail because reality gets fuzzy: risks aren’t owned, actions don’t close, and progress is claimed without evidence.
Project Health Control (PHC) Service keeps reality in view by making project work visible and reviewable. It creates a clean, inspectable trail of what’s happening, what’s blocked, who owns the next actions, and what evidence supports progress.
PHC maintains a live snapshot of:
- 🔹 Concerns (risks, blockers, unknowns)
- 🔹 Actions (tasks with owners, deadlines, and evidence of closure)
- 🔹 Time + narrative (what was done, by whom, and why)
- 🔹 Deliverables + validation (what’s been produced and what checks confirm it)
PHC Port stores and organises these records with controlled visibility. PHC is neutral: it produces structured evidence and context. Incentives or funding models can sit on top - but PHC itself stays out of ideology and extraction games.
Start with a 7-Day Review, then scale into Setup + Monitoring if you need ongoing governance.
PHC Service
Governance, assurance, and delivery discipline that keeps projects steerable: concerns owned, actions closed, evidence attached.
PHC Port
The platform where PHC records live: registers, snapshots, evidence links, and review outputs with controlled visibility and reviewable records.
7-Day Review
A rapid, evidence-based health check: where the project really is, what’s at risk, and what must happen next.
What you get
Clarity on what’s happening, what’s blocked, who owns the next actions, and what evidence exists for progress.
How it works
Capture → Review → Validate → Report. PHC keeps a live snapshot across Schedule, Concerns, Actions, Locations, People, Events, Deliverables (SCALPED).
Neutral by design
PHC produces structured evidence and context. Any incentives or funding models can sit on top - but PHC itself stays neutral.
Who it’s for
Any delivery that’s complex, risky, or hard to prove: humanitarian, public sector, and commercial operations.
Project Health Control (PHC) Service is a structured governance, assurance, and delivery framework designed to increase the probability of success of complex projects across humanitarian, governance, and commercial contexts.
PHC Service operates by providing visibility, accountability, and continuity of decision-making through documented concerns, actions, time-recording, validation, and contextual narrative. It treats governance, coordination, and competence as real inputs to a project — not as invisible or assumed goodwill.
What PHC Service IS
- Governance, assurance, and delivery discipline
- Structured records: concerns, actions, time + narrative, validation, deliverables
- Reviewable evidence trail for owners, funders, auditors, and future teams
- Neutral method: facts + context, not opinions
What PHC Service IS NOT
- Not a volunteer labour scheme or “pro-bono by default”
- Not a fundraising mechanism
- Not a token economy / reward system
- Not an ideology or economic doctrine
- Not a substitute for leadership, ownership, or funding responsibility
Funding and Payment Position
PHC Service is not provided on a volunteer basis. Governance, coordination, and assurance are professional responsibilities and are treated as such.
PHC operates with flexibility in timing: validated charges may accrue and become payable when project funds are available.
Relationship to Pro-Bono
Where individuals contribute unpaid work outside funded roles, PHC can provide structured, verifiable evidence of that contribution. PHC records facts + context.
PHC works by keeping a project’s reality visible and reviewable through structured records and a regular review cadence.
Core loop: Capture → Review → Validate → Report
Capture
Record concerns, actions, time + narrative, and deliverables as work happens.
Review
Run a regular cadence to surface drift early: what changed, what’s blocked, and what decisions are needed.
Validate + Report
Validate key claims, then produce a clear snapshot of what’s true and what’s next.
SCALPED live snapshot
Schedule, Concerns, Actions, Locations, People, Events, Deliverables (SCALPED).
What you get each cycle
- Current project snapshot
- Clean list of next actions
- Maintained concerns register
PHC pricing uses tracks based on the project’s funding context.
Track 1 — Commercial (100%)
Standard rate basis for commercially funded delivery.
Track 2 — Humanitarian (10%)
Reduced rate for genuinely constrained projects.
Track 3 — Public Sector (50%)
Mid-rate for government programmes.
How pricing works
The multiplier applies to PHC Service charges. Service scope and evidence standards remain constant across all tracks.
