Edward Ptolomey shows how a partnership approach in the utilities sector reduced duplication of information and helped risk management.

To obtain and use this critical information you can either demand it is given to you as part of the contract arrangement or you can embrace a partnership approach. Partnership creates a platform for involving the third party in creating and exploring common information requirements that enable workflow. This will enable there to be “one version of the truth”.
