Operations Readiness & Assurance (OR&A) is the discipline that ensures projects are delivered into safe, efficient, and sustainable operations. It is the structured process of preparing asset custodians and their supporting organisation so that, at the point of handover, they are genuinely “Ready to Operate.” This requires more than procedures—it demands evidence that operational requirements have been identified, addressed, and embedded throughout project development.

Assurance, in this context, provides stakeholders with confidence that the organisation and asset will perform as intended from day one. Errors or omissions discovered only at handover are too late; a robust OR&A process avoids these pitfalls by integrating readiness and assurance into every stage.

Our OR&A training courses in London are delivered by practitioners with real-world project experience, and LPC Training is accredited by OR&A, ensuring participants gain trusted methods to manage readiness reviews, lead assurance processes, and secure long-term performance.
