  1. Conflict Resolution Process

The team agrees to the following escalation ladder:

  1. Direct discussion between parties
  2. Mediation by Project Manager
  3. Executive review (if contractual)
  4. Sponsor escalation (if strategic)

Conflict will be resolved based on:

  • Contract terms
  • Project objectives
  • Data, not hierarchy
  1. Accountability & Commitment

Each team member commits to:

  • Meeting deadlines
  • Escalating risks early
  • Owning assigned deliverables
  • Supporting cross-functional collaboration

Failure to communicate blockers within 48 hours is considered a governance breach.

  1. Hybrid Collaboration Rules

Because the project combines predictive and agile approaches:

  • Construction dependencies must be transparent to digital team
  • Digital changes affecting physical infrastructure must be reviewed early
  • Integration milestones override silo priorities

No stream may optimize at the expense of the integrated milestone.

  1. Psychological Safety Commitment

Team members may:

  • Raise concerns without fear
  • Challenge assumptions respectfully
  • Admit mistakes early
  • Request help when needed

Leadership commits to listening before judging.

  1. Performance Expectations

Team performance will be measured by:

  • Milestone adherence
  • Quality compliance
  • Risk mitigation effectiveness
  • Collaboration feedback
  • Stakeholder satisfaction
  1. Meeting Etiquette
  • Agenda shared in advance
  • Time-boxed discussions
  • Clear action items
  • Meeting minutes within 24 hours
  1. Escalation Triggers

Immediate escalation required if:

  • Safety risk identified
  • Integration failure
  • Budget variance > 10%
  • Regulatory conflict
  1. Continuous Improvement

Digital team will hold retrospectives every sprint.

Construction team will conduct monthly lessons sessions.

Cross-stream improvement workshop quarterly.

  1. Amendment Process

This Team Charter may be updated if:

  • Team structure changes
  • Conflict pattern emerges
  • Hybrid coordination needs refinement

All updates require core team approval.
