Guidance Note: Establishing a 'results-orientated' culture as set out in the Owner's VfM Statement requires the Participants to have a clear understanding of the objectives of the Project and to work together and collaborate in respect of all aspects of the performance of the Works (from designing the Works, preparing the TOC, obtaining all of the authorisations required to deliver the Project and to preparing a project management system for the Project). With a clear understanding of the objectives of the Project, each endeavour of the Participants under the alliance contract must be made with the aim of producing outstanding results as against the objectives of the Project as set out in the Owner's VfM Statement.

Best-in-class resources must be utilised and innovation must be encouraged. Given that the Participants will collaborate in all aspects of the performance of the Works, all of the Participants will have complete 'buy in' in respect of the Project and any outstanding results will be achieved by the Participants as a whole (rather than any one Participant). Results will be recognised by the Participants as a team effort.
