The Outcome Assurance™ Framework: The Missing Addendum to the PMBOK® Guide (Unabridged‪)‬

Nine out of ten complex industrial, energy, and process plant projects fail to deliver on their cost, schedule, or performance objectives. The statistics are clear: traditional project management methods alone are not enough to assure outcomes.

The Outcome Assurance™ Framework is the missing addendum to the PMBOK® Guide — the piece that project leaders, owners, and executives have been searching for. Where the PMBOK® Guide provides process guidance, Outcome Assurance™ provides leadership direction, governance alignment, and system integration to ensure projects do more than finish - they succeed.

This framework introduces a bold new model that:

Shifts focus from activities to outcomes
Embeds accountability and governance from the onset
Bridges the gap between project management theory and the realities of large, complex project execution
Aligns commissioning, operational readiness, and leadership into a unified assurance model


For professionals working on high-stakes industrial, process, energy, or infrastructure projects, The Outcome Assurance™ Framework offers a practical, strategic, and transformational approach.

If the PMBOK® Guide is the map, this addendum is the compass – pointing every project toward assured success.
