The proposition
Failure is rarely a mystery. It leaves a pattern.
SPICE turns dispersed inquiries, audits, regulatory records, and case evidence into structured knowledge that sponsors, delivery teams, and the public can interrogate.
We separate upstream conditions, delivery mechanisms, and outcomes so repetition becomes visible and decisions can change.

Evidence in motion.
Projects become records. Records reveal patterns.
The gallery connects projects, sectors, and the research artifacts the centre structures so learning can accumulate.

Projects behind the patterns
Three records. Three different readings.
Working values from the verified seed sample. Project boundaries and cost concepts differ: these are not league tables.
Trans Mountain Expansion
Site C
Darlington Refurbishment
Pattern matrix
Repetition becomes evidence.
Fourteen provisional codes are tested across the fifteen seed records. Every cell leads back to a project and a defined code.
Explore the patternsResearch programme
Four streams. One system view.
From the first commitment to the final integrated test.
- S1
Governance & risk
Decision rights, assurance, baseline control, and the owner capabilities that protect a business case.
- S2
Performance & productivity
Productivity, rework, disputes, and the commercial architectures of delivery.
- S3
Indigenous rights & consultation
Rights, jurisdiction, and legitimacy treated as project-definition questions.
- S4
Technology & integration
Interfaces, software, configuration, integrated testing, and commissioning.
A century of building big
The ambition changes. The lessons return.
From foundational bridges to new networks, every generation of major projects leaves a record for the next.
