- Optionales Büro in London
Heathrow is one of the largest regulated businesses in the world. The airport has a track record of effective economic regulation to support investment, efficiency, and growth in pursuit of our vision of delivering the best airport passenger service in the world. We are subject to robust scrutiny from airline customers, our regulator and government. Our shareholders rely on us to provide a capital regulatory framework that establishes a business that is stable, financeable, and profitable.
The Solutions function delivers integrated capital solutions to our customers, operational teams and business sponsors. In collaboration with Strategy, People and Finance teams and business stakeholders, our strategic programmes deliver some of our key transformational objectives and business outcomes, while driving efficiency and value from our current assets and capability.
As part of Heathrow’s H7 settlement there were key changes introduced to how we manage our capital investment through:
- Introduction of Delivery Obligations (DO’s) – At the G3 Investment Decision, DOs will be set across each of Output, Quality and Schedule. At project close the performance against these DO’s will be measured and where we do not perform as expected and DOs are not achieved there will be a financial impact on the Regulated Asset Base (RAB - the mechanism by which Heathrow recovers its capital investment)
- Move to Ex Ante from Ex Post – At G3 we set the project baseline and then at project close 25% of any overspend or underspend will be adjusted for on the RAB).
These new regulatory requirements have introduced new accountabilities and activities into our business in order to ensure projects at investment decision can confidently set DOs and a cost baseline which minimise the risk of non-performance and financial exposure.
