The engagement lifecycle

How the engagement moves through delivery

  1. 01

    Form

    Record the duties and delivery work

    The team can record duties from the field service agreement, outage window, evidence requirements and applicable notice rules as delivery items. The distributor remains responsible for duties the Rules assign to it when a provider performs the field work.

    What stays connected

    Duty, source reference, responsible organisation, deliverer, due date and evidence.

  2. 02

    Plan

    Connect prerequisites to the work

    Operating approvals, applicable life support checks, customer-notice duties and field prerequisites can be recorded as linked delivery items. Nebula shows each recorded item state and dependency for the distributor's authorised operating team to review.

    What stays connected

    Approval item, life support check, notice duty, dependency and recorded item state.

  3. 03

    Notify

    Keep notice duties with the work

    Customer-notice duties can be recorded as delivery items with required dates and evidence. If the work window changes, the earlier date and proposed date can be recorded for the other project party to respond. The distributor's authorised team determines any fresh customer notice or consent required by the Rules.

    What stays connected

    Notice item, required date, evidence, earlier date, proposed date and recorded response.

  4. 04

    Deliver

    Connect field records to restoration

    The team can record mobilisation, a provider-reported blocker, completion and restoration evidence in the item workspace. Authorised operational systems and procedures govern switching, safety and field control.

    What stays connected

    Field milestone, provider-reported blocker, restoration evidence, incident and responsible party.

  5. 05

    Respond

    Record a proposed change and its decision

    The deadline-change path retains the earlier date, proposed date, reason and responding party's recorded decision. A variation can separately record its description, reason, cost impact, time impact, clause reference and authorised response.

    What stays connected

    Earlier date, proposed date, reason, responder, variation and recorded decision.

  6. 06

    Close

    Record restoration and closeout work

    Restoration evidence, project communications, incidents, provider reports, payment claims and remaining work can stay connected as delivery items and records. Authorised project members can generate a current engagement report from the records Nebula holds.

    What stays connected

    Restoration evidence, project communication, incident, payment claim, recorded state and closeout item.

Delivery trust

Keep eligible delivery events available for review

For verified item events, Nebula applies its eligibility rules before it can record a reputation event in a provider organisation's service history. The distributor decides how that record informs provider selection.
