Revisiting our Wish List

As part of our Phase Two proposal we published our “wish list” of who we would ideally like to have subscribe to our developments. These firms and national oil companies provide the majority share of oil and gas production in the world. And as such, should we be successful in securing these producers we would have a large subscription base in which to draw our funding from. Again this would be the ideal situation for People, Ideas & Objects (PI&O).

One of the key deliverables of the Preliminary Specification is the geographic scope of the application. If we had the “wish list” as our subscribing base, then this geographic scope would replicate the geographic area of the subscribing producers. Its as simple and obvious as that, however something that maybe needs to be stated explicitly.

Once our subscribing producers have set the scope of the PI&O application during the Preliminary Specification; going back and adjusting the scope in the Detailed and Final Specification will be difficult, expensive and time consuming. In fact changing the scope of the application after the Preliminary Specification has been set is something that should not be done. Therefore the next opportunity for the community to adjust the scope of the application would be when the Final Specification is complete, and we begin the Preliminary Specification for the next iteration of development. In other words those that miss this opportunity to participate in defining the scope of the Preliminary Specification in the first iteration of development, may still participate in the community, however will have to wait to have their unique needs met in subsequent iterations of development.

Waiting has its costs, as has been stated here before, the additional costs of the late fees, and possibly the most costly aspect of missing out on the initial scope of the Preliminary Specification might be that of an outsider looking in. Some might argue that the scope of our wish list is too ambitious. An alternative scenario that I see forming is that the Preliminary Specifications scope is formed around the America’s. This being more controllable from the point of view of what is possible and probable. We have based our organization around the Houston area to deal with the determination of any scope of the application. Given time the wish list may become possible and probable, and maybe the reality of such an application won’t seem so impossible.

For the industry to successfully provide for the consumers energy demands, it’s necessary to build the systems that identify and support the Joint Operating Committee. Building the Preliminary Specification is the focus of People, Ideas & Objects. Producers are encouraged to contact me in order to support our Revenue Model and begin their participation in these communities. Those individuals that are interested in joining People, Ideas & Objects can join me here and begin building the software necessary for the successful and innovative oil and gas industry.

Please note what Google+ provides us is the opportunity to prove that People, Ideas & Objects are committed to developing this community. That this is user developed software, not change that is driven from the top down. Join me on the People, Ideas & Objects Google+ Circle and begin building the community for the development of the Preliminary Specification. Email me here if you need an invite.
